Hi all
I need to buy a new grass cutter, and want to figure out my options...
I have a tractor & topper, a push mower and an old Westwood ride on mower. I use a combination to get the effect I want. The problem is that the Westwood has come to the end of its 35 year life, whilst mechanically the mower is OK, its electrics are shot, it needs new brake pads (the brakes don't work....) its generally tired and so on. If someone had the time, it make a good mower.
Before I jump right in and buy a replacement ride on, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to an alternative ? I have a budget of around £2500, and should get another £400 for the Westwood with all its attachments, so nearly £3K in the pot.
I would prefer to buy new with an extended warranty & service package, or decent quality if second hand & I do the servicing.
I mow about 7 acres, mostly on a gentle hill side, and in an orchard. So reasonable manoeuvrability is important.
Cheers
