I thought it was. It has the hinge where the seat folds forwards and the handbrake mounted on the console. I think the single direction have the handbrake by the side of the seat

Looks reversible to me. But I’m trying so hard not to look!!
Just kidding, it’s far too big for my work. I’m not looking to chase work that requires three times the diesel and capital outlay for the same day rate.
Sad day last week as old faithful did her last job for me and then went off to pastures new. New model is up to 150 hours now, and the old one just wasn’t going to get used.

I should co co ... did Vicki's old house down the village yesterday .. month's growth wasn't too bad but always cover up with a pair of lightweight over trousers, over tall boots/ rigger/wellies ... so much easier to just climb out of it all cleanBit brave strimming long grass in shorts. Hope you did your duty and inspect eachother for ticks at the end of the day

Looking at buying another 5ft topper, Fleming ones look good, galvanised, offset, reputable make at about 1000 plus VAT. Any reason not to/better suggestions?

Yea I’ve been looking at 4ft Fleming myself and just thought I’d echo what you said look good well made and I really like the galvanising on the bottom.. just getting round to go and get it, that’s my problem as they aren’t that far away from me to the factory..Looking at buying another 5ft topper, Fleming ones look good, galvanised, offset, reputable make at about 1000 plus VAT.

Anyone interested in this reliable old dog as mentioned / shown above? £3800 plus vat. Absolutely nothing wrong with it bar a weep on the front kingpin seal, it’s just her new sister has a cab and loader.
I will be swapping the wheels over as they are slightly larger on the old one and I prefer that. I’ll also be keeping the gym weights but there’s a big old green weight block that can stay. All fluid and filters changed 100 hours ago. Will make a very good tractor for someone.
Did this sell in the end Doobin? Looked at a new site yesterday where there's potential for years of mowing etc

Ive got a Flemming topper it does the job well i got it of someone that couldnt get on with it, I gave it a go and thought it hadn't been seet up as it was on the highest setting, So i just did the adjustment and it cuts perfectly i tow it with my Ford 5610 which is more than enough for it, Spares are really easy to get for Flemmings too.

Choice of two, one with cab and loader.
I need one geared tractor, but realistically I don’t need the loader either.

surely the front rollers'd flatten it all first ?

It's for slightly shorter grass than a topper. The council used them as they will do everything from football pitches to the rough areas cut a few times a year. The rollers flatten all the grass then the shape of the blades on majors supposedly sucks it back up. It's supposed to stop you getting the tractor wheel marks appearing as longer grass strips after a couple of weeks.
