After a few years of excellent service the gearbox on my weibang virtue 53ssd (shaft drive) has failed.

I could have it replaced. But I'm minded to get a new machine instead. 

I'm looking at possibly a Stihl this time as a lightweight alternative. Plus I like the plastic collection box as opposed to mesh bag. 

The vast majority of my lawns are residential. I currently have a 19" Izy. A 19" masport roller and a Stihl 21" roller mower.

I liked the power of the shaft drive Weibang. But not the weight!

Any suggestions on a replacement. Something powerful, lightweight, 21" cutting deck. Price £800 ish. Thanks.
