Lovely machine Scott 👍

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

Houghton garden services thanks Kev hope you’re keeping well.

[@JimmyTheMower]

Fantastic machines, I absolutely love them 👍

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

They are great machines. We have also got the hr300 rotary coming to work alongside this this year. Mowing season is nearly here.👍

We're looking for a machine for our cricket club to replace our Toro 5400D to do the outfield, would you recommend a parkway for the job?..

[@JimmyTheMower]

@@Jimbo-gi7xn yes I would. As long as you have someone to maintain the cutting heads to a good standard then it should provide you with years of trouble free cutting. You could even save a £££'s and go for the lighter Ransomes Highway.

[@Jimbo-gi7xn]

@@JimmyTheMower thats great mate thanks. We have a very experienced chap that does all our grinding and backlapping etc so we have no worries there..highway could be the answer I think

[@lukerogers151]

That's a really, really big investment to make but definitely worth it. My budget is decidedly less large than that but I'm thinking of investing in a domestic ride on, what would you recommend? Thanks!

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

You can pick old ones of these up for £5k but you need to be lucky with them. I had a 10 year old one and it was a good machine for a few years. I did start of with a zero turn hustler which was around 3.5 k new at the time. You have to start small and work up in this trade. It took me 13 years before I could start investing big sums like this. Speak to your local dealer and see what demonstrations are available. They should help you out if they are going to get your business.

[@Zeamus634]

How did you get that contract, was it direct with the school or was it through a local authority tendering process etc?

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

It was word of mouth from another school yes.

[@rjworld7122]

Very short looks like your cutting 2 and a half inch grass down to 20ml i mow fairways at that height

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

Yes cut to an inch. It’s a school and they like the grass short for outdoor activities but it is only mown fortnightly.

[@andrewjohn7952]

Are you not interested in having a demo of the Kubota or Toro to see how they compare?

[@scottellwoodgardening287]

Where are you based Andrew.
