With the grass growing really quickly many of you will probably be wishing you owned a garden tractor to keep the lawns trimmed and long grass under control.
We have a special arrangement with Mountfield as we are their preferred on-line partner which means we can bring you their products at very special prices.
And currently not only are there some special prices but the opportunity to buy MD ride-on attachments on special offer.
These attachments are great time savers if you have a larger area of land – just think of the time a tow-behind leaf sweeper can save in the autumn!
Mountfield lawn tractor
The Mountfield 2240H Lawn Tractor Mower is currently at a very special price which will save you £400 on the manufacturer’s recommended price.
If you have a large area to cut, say around three acres this lawn tractor with hydrostatic transmission fits the bill perfectly.
A twin-cylinder Briggs & Stratton engine powers this machine which has a 40 in. cut and a ContraFlo system which makes it highly fuel efficient.
The clippings are ejected to a 320 litre grass box and an alarm sounds when it is full.
Plus there is a handy snap-on connector for a garden hose to wash the deck when you finish mowing.
A tow-bar is fitted as standard and an optional mulch plug and rear grass deflector can be bought.
This Mountfield costs £3299, £400 less than the manufacturer’s recommended price.
The mulch plug costs £89 and the deflector £69 but there are other attachments, all excellent value, which will turn the garden tractor into a year-long work horse.
A heavy duty MD steel tipping trailer costs just £199, a wide MD tow-behind leaf sweeper £199, MD broadcast spreader £139 and an MD tow behind aerator £149.
Also you can buy an MD towed de-thatcher rake for £59 and an MD steel roller for £129.
Delivery is free within three to five working days and there is a five year manufacturer’s warranty.
Another model on special offer is the Mountfield 1538H-SD Lawn & Garden Tractor.
Mountfield side discharge lawn tractor
This one has a 14.5 hp Mountfield single cylinder engine and is suitable for lawns and other areas up to two acres.
It has a cutting width of 98 cm and discharges to the side – useful for the rougher areas.
Mulched grass clippings can be discharged back to the lawn to rot and quickly disappear and provide valuable nutrients.
Hydrostatic drive makes it easy to control the speed and to mow around obstacles.
The cuttings heights can be adjusted from 25 to 80 mm.
It comes with a mulch plug and tow bar and costs £1499, £100 less than the manufacturer’s recommended price.
Again there are some great offers on MD garden machinery when you buy this garden tractor.
A steel tipping trailer is just £99, a steel roller is £129, tow-behind leaf sweeper £149, broadcast spreader £69 and tow behind de-thatcher is £69.
Delivery is free within three to five working days and there is a two year manufacturer’s warranty.
Mountfield four wheel drive lawn tractor
And the top of the tree lawn tractor from this leading manufacturer is the Mountfield 2448H-4WD Lawn & Garden Tractor (Four-Wheel Drive).
This is a truly high-performance top-spec machine and is ideal for those with up to five acres of lawn and grassland.
Because it is a four-wheel drive it won’t damage the lawn as you turn round at the end of the row; and it will also work in more challenging terrain.
The 724 cc Briggs & Stratton twin cylinder engine has an electric key start to make life easier.
And the variable speed transmission and 100 cm turning circle make it easy to drive around obstacles.
It has a 122 cm twin-bladed cutter deck which extends beyond the wheel width to make precise edging easier and it can be raised or lowered to any of nine positions.
Again cleaning is easy – just attach a hosepipe to a special fitting.
The grass box can take 360 litres and can be easily emptied by a lever you’ll know when it’s full by the alarm sounding.
This really is a top lawn tractor and features electromagnetic blade engagement to minimise wear.
There is a proper dashboard to show you battery status, rpm, fuel level etc.
This lawn tractor costs £4999 and that’s £600 less than the manufacturer’s recommended price.
But again there are a number of MD attachments which can maximise the use of this machine throughout the year.
A rear deflector costs £69, a heavy duty steel tipping trailer is £199, wide leaf sweeper is £199, broadcast spreader £139, tow-behind plug aerator £149, dethatching rake £59 and an steel towed roller is £129.
Delivery is free with three to five working days and there is a five year manufacturer’s warranty.
