I was looking at a similar tractor a few years back for the back garden as its around 90x20meters & around 2/3 i used for growing wild flowers. This was quite an interesting thing to do as one of the things that many wild flowers don't like, unless looked at carefully is grass. Grass tends to be the dominant one & won't give many wild flowers a chance. But there are a few wild flowers that work with a symbiotic way to latch onto the grass roots to get their goodness.
But now i have a wild area, i need to cut it & found myself an old TVO grey Fergie tractor with a topper to cut this area. Now i had this for 4 years & cost me £1750.00 with the topper/cutter. Now because this was in really good condition i kept it in the garage. But now 4 years later i needed the room, it had to go. with a change to a ride-on mower & a bit more space in the garage. Ironically i sold it to a guy that lived about 7 miles from Where I brought it for £1950.00 & thought great i made a couple of hundred pound, but alas, i sold it on eBay the wrong way & got charged 10%.

Re: A new tractor
It was fun while i had it. But if left too long without use the clutch would grip very quickly with no slip & lift the front wheels a good 12 inches + of the ground. Not good for the nerves. lolWalkingthedog wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2019 4:03 pm Never mind, I’m sure you enjoyed the tractor while you had it. Does look rather nice. Lovely garden you have there.
