No worries,
they were a top tier machine in their day with all the features you want like large ball bearing wheels and adjustable angle folding handles for ease of mowing under shrubs. They will handle tall thick grass all day better than any four stroke (except maybe an expensive Honda OHV).
Too good to throw to the tip for certain. Good save.
The points may just need a clean but you should be able to scavenge an ignition module of a later Victa though you may not have the luxury of access to a wreck like I've got, so give it a go seeing if you can get it to spark again with the existing points and condensor ignition.
Keep us posted.
