Two wheel, walking tractor from Lampacrescia. If you follow this link you can find out more about them. Hubby is the guy on the left, cutting reeds with this very tractor!

It's 10HP and has an electric start. Diesel. Very easy to use and very effective. It cut old sieves (rushes) up steep wet slopes on our land, without fault. The handlebars rotate 180 degrees. The trailer has a seat on it and you can then 'drive' the unit.
The flail has had about 80 hours use, the plough has been used once and the rotovator never used (the vegetable patch still hasn't been created!).
We bought more land soon after buying the two wheel and had to upgrade to bigger machinery.
The whole outfit cost £4500 pounds new. To be sold all together, not split. It all arrived in the back of a transit, to give you an idea of transport. Buyer to collect.
