A few weeks ago I convinced a mate who mows back yards that are big and get fairly long, to chase up an old Victa 24 with a full crank motor and pre plastic carb. He whinged about paying nearly $300 for one but now it is his mower of choice. He wanted to know why they were still so expensive, my answer was "because they work and do the job you ask them to do and people know that"
