Went to the Carbooty today, not been to many of late and stubbled upon this Generator ;D Tried my hardest to barter him down but he wouldn't have it, >:( even after going away and coming back twice :( Anyway I paid the asking price £50 :-\ was that a bargain?
I believe it is quite old as I can't find one on the net to compare a price, but being a Honda (Good Make) and owning a Honda Tiller that I am really chuffed with, I couldn't resist it ;D
It starts first pull as you would expect from a Honda although only 1200watt it powered a 1450watt Flymo and did a good job of the lawn and a 1750 watt chainsaw (separately).
My Daughters Hubby (God bless him) ;D has most of the 240volt power tools I would need for my lottie :P so I'm chuffed as a squirrel with nuts ;D

sounds good to me. thats one of the problems with my rotavator, its lecky!! would love a generator so i can use it to its full potential a bit more.
If it works (it obviously does) and is going to do the jobs that you want it to do then its good value for money

Well done Roy, that's a bargain :D ;
Went to an auction on Friday, and generators half the size of that one were going for £60 -£70.
It's amazing what you find at carboots :D
Definitely a bargain. Jammy git ;) ;D
Hi Roy,
Yesterday at our local car boot (Cuffley) I saw the same beast for £65. OH said we should buy it but we have no lotty. I thought "what for" ::) ;D ??? So we left it there. Yours is definitely a very good bargain !
:D
well done mate that looks like a canny buy :o
