This is a good alrounder, or if your more doestic focused then go for a 15 litre, that way you shouldn't have too much trouble with water supply

I've got a diesel Lombardini 10hp with interpump 201 and gearbox that I'll be putting on a trolley when I get chance.

Just need to rub up the trolley and spray in, clean the engine up and put an unloader valve on the pump. £700.

OOOOOHHH you can choose your colour  :o :o ;D

I think buying brand new from Brendon is going to be a little out of your budget Franky..

Check out eBay, lots of secondhand brendon washers on there mate, and as BlastAway says, get a diesel, cheap on fuel, easy to repair.

Honda engines are easy for parts, easy to repair. The Yanmar engines are the same, the parts are cheap, easy to fix.

For your budget, you could get a decent second hand diesel machine, 15lpm/3000psi, which will do the job you need it for nicely.

Talk to Kenny83 on here, he has some good machines for sale, secondhand, reconditioned, good stuff.

I use PC Jones in Keynsham to service my kit and they sell reconditioned equipment as well.

May be worth calling in to see them for advise.
