I am interested in a rotavator of this type for use on my allotment.

Is this machine still available ? If so what order of price do you have in mind.

Regards,

Donald

Welcome to A4A Nigel. You'll find rotovators in garden centres and DIY sheds. If you want secondhand try eBay or car boot sales - helps if you know a bit about them.

Post by: chriscross1966 on September 21, 2009, 13:32:28: I'll be getting rid of a rotovator soon. It's a Howard Bullfinch (the small "proper" Howard), I want to fettle it back so that I'm sure it's working properly. I'm only getting rid of it as I had a lucky (unlucky?) experience on ebay of winning two rotovators at the same time... I hadn't expected to get either of them TBF and the other one is a 400 (ie the same size as a Yeoman, the next one down from the Gem). Unfortunately I'm in oxford so it might be a bit of a trip to fetch, though with the handles off you'd easily get a Bullfinch in an estate car, something that isn't really the case for the 400.....
