Friends who have a paddock which they want to bring into some sort of
order are debating about a sit on mower. The paddock is quite large and
they may well develop two more and make one a garden with lawn.

Is it worth them going down the second hand recon. Path and getting as
big as possible or go for something smaller but brand new.
If recon. Where would you recommend they go? They live near Aylesbury.

Probably cheaper to get a 2nd hand agricutlural tractor and a topper.
Also much more robust than this garden crap.

Best to get a new topper, they get some hammer. Or at least cheack
out very carefully.

Tractor also much more useful than the garden things, lots more
accessories can be obtained/used. Also runs on red diesel, much
cheaper than petrol.


If you can get red diesel in small quantities.

As per my previous response, consider Kubota ride-on, it's a half-way
house between 'domestic' ride-on mowers and a full blown tractor. It
runs on diesel too.
