I have got a very old Mountfield rotavator, with a Briggs & Stratton 3hp engine. It still works a treat, & will probably outlast me. Now about 30 years ago, I owned a very similar one, & I had several attachments like a plough & tine bar. Does anybody know where I might be able to find any - and I have watched ebay for over a month.

Whereabouts are you based?
In Nottingham somewhere, my father has a contact to get old bits of rotavators. Its somewhere near the old rotavator factory. Apparently when they closed it down many of the workers got extra bits of kit just in case!
I am living in Haverigg, Cumbria. Windy, sandy, infertile - but beautiful!
Talk to me sunflower76!
Love rotavators!
hi iv have been to haverigg it is most buitiful place iv been to are you in the town its self r just out side
I am just outside the town, behind St Luke's Church. and just have the Rugby Club between me & the sea.
Moved in Christmas 04. Promptly lost two mature trees and top two courses of my front wall in a storm. Wondered what on earth we had moved in to!
Unfortunately I know very little about them, I just have a knowledgable father!
My Rotavator was bought from the tip for £10 and wouldn't go at all but he had a go at it and all it needed was a good clean, a new spark plug and a spring.
Its on the blink at the moment and not starting at all so its back into his garage as soon as he has time.
