Possible sale of SISIS AUTO Turfman

Posted by David Cox on October 20, 2013 at 8:29pm

I have a mid 90's SISIS Auto Turfman - It has been used for about 4 months.

I am considering selling it, as it is too big for most of the gardens I am Aerating and I intend to buy a smaller machine to replace it.

It is Very Similar to the following, but has non pnuematic front wheels and a slightly larger shroud body;

It is really more suited to larger lawns - 400sqm + and on lawns less than 100sqm you will find it cumbersome and arqward to manover. On large lawns its a wonderful machine - however out of 26 aerations its done for me........ only 2 have been over 200sqm.

I Spent £320 servicing and restoring it, and it has a full set of solid tines - so will probabbly keep it for the rare occation its justified unless its worth it to sell it.

Any ideas on its value?
