Default Possible Subaru Bulk Buy

Went to Carrefour yesterday as they had a wine promotion and what did I find on special offer, A Subaru powered mower!with the Subaru motif on the engine. Price is very interesting,going back Tuesday to pick one up. Should I ask about a bulk order?

HI Ian, thought you might be first to want one!!!! If you google " Tondeuse thermique Subaru 4 en 1" you will get all the info. It's a Subaru 190cc engine,cast iron cylinder & steel timing chain. Price at Carrefour is 369euros, which is a great offer.

Is it the Ryobi one?

Don't seem to do one with a rear roller.

I have a Hayter Harrier. Alas, the pull start frayed and snapped last week when trying to do the first start up of the season, so it'll be off for re-stringing shortly. It's getting on a bit, so hopefully the rest works still!

Spot on Scott. At least I will have a "Subaru". Not sure if it can be modified, but already looking in to it!

Each to their own, just make sure the blade's not rotating... you might lose your "dongle".
