I visited Espace Motoculture et Loisir in Chauvigny, as suggested by Fred.
They had a wide range of second hand mowers and garden tractors. They were very helpful and asked about the size to be mown, how wet/dry/hilly it was, then recommended a particular machine - two years old with a one year guarantee.
I went back home to research that model on the web and it did seem like a good recommendation. I went back on Friday and after a test drive and a bit of negotiation, I bought it at about 65% of the new price with a couple of new added accessories.
It is due to be delivered on Wednesday afternoon so I'll let you know how you get on. If you need to find me, go to Adriers on Friday and follow the smell of freshly cut grass!
Thank, Fred, for the recommendation.
