Plenty of mowers in stock and can certainly work something out. Roller is nice but it really adds to the price. Would you need power drive? I find the cobra rollers to be the best quality while not getting too expensive. There will be a few quid off the cobra promo price.


Cobra Rear Roller Range Lawnmowers


If you don't need a roller the Al-ko 42.5 special is a cracking machine for the money with great wet weather collection, 5 year warranty and a mulch plug. Coming in at around £219 in stock.

The alko is hard to beat. The 21" one is £399 I'll see if I can do anything. Great in the wet, made in Austria, 5 year warranty etc etc. They win every award going.
We do cheaper e.g. 21" mtx power drive £275 and we do more professional depending on budget/needs.

Got a great Alko mower from Simon a few days ago....had the misfortune to have to cut the grass on Sunday. Worked a treat though, far better than the scrap I had before !

Although I'm still minded that spraying Gallup360 will kill the entire lot saving lots of work !

Thanks for the tip on the AlKo @lightning

picked one up from Wilsons today, first time there and looks to be a well run outfit!

Simon is a gentleman to deal with. They're just over 30 miles from me, and I pass about half a dozen other garden equipment suppliers and hardware places to get to them (including 1 literally a quarter mile up the road from me) but find it very worth while taking the trip up given the variety of their stock and great deals they do. Customer service is key (y)

Not to mention the Mitox strimmer and the cordless Alko strimmer, and I'm nowhere near done yet. Need a hedge trimmer now too, and a few attachments for the back end of the new ride on (y)

Need a lawnmower for the new house, small garden really but needs to be petrol as I can’t deal with electric mowers

What do you have? Want something decent quality as I bought a £100 B&Q special a few years ago did our rented house and it was awful.

I’m in England though so could you post or would that add too much to the cost?

I'd recommend the Al-ko 42.7 p a if you want quality but small. Worst case it will be £219 inc postage to England. In stock.

AL-KO Highline 42.7 P-A Petrol Lawn Mower | AL-KO Gardentech

This machine is built in Austria and is superb, but they are launching a range of cheaper machines presumably made in the far east in the spring, will be ok as they're being made in their own factory but wont have an idea of pricing for a while yet.

Sounds good, what’s the easiest way to sort payment?

I snapped up another lawn mower today as it was selling for a good price, I intend to sell the previous one this summer. This new one is a Qualcast Classic 43S with 17" blade...

What's the recommendations for this season? I need a petrol mower. Area approx 12m x 10m at the back and maybe half of that at the front of the house.
