Recommend me a new lawn mower
Discussion
My beloved 1971 Hayter Harrier mk1 19” cut has seized. I’m gutted... we’ve had it for twelve years and it leaves such a lovely finish.
I’ve enquired about replacement engines and having both a vertical and side shaft (for the chain drive) isn’t available. I’m tempted to have a stab at rebuilding the engine, but time is limited and I’m guessing parts will be scarce.
So... time for a new mower! The main requirements are self propelled and stripes. I quite fancy a cylinder mower. It needs to last my lifetime (I.e. ~40yrs), so I’m happy to spend some money for a premium machine.
The Lawn is medium sized. Attaching a photo if helpful for recommendations.
Thanks in advance.
