Hi All

My trusty mountfield has expired after 15 years service so looking for
a replacement before the weekend. Needs to be 18 inch cut, steel
deck, hand propelled, with a big grass collector. Money's a bit tight
at the moment so also needs to be cheap. I see screwfix are selling
'Victus' mowers at a good price:

Anyone got one of these? Is it OK? Any other recommendations for a
cheapy petrol mower.

TIA

I would be seriously tempted to fix the Mountfield.

Modern mowers are relative crap.

Engine is clapped plus too many other projects to put this on the
list. So need to buy something...
