Best Victa Petrol Lawn Mowers

75 anniversary model Victa should be ashamed (made in China to a very strict budget) very bad vibration and the blade holder and blades came flying… Read more

off nearly took my leg off!!! Bunnings would not look at it and 2 dealers would not accept it for warranty ( 5 years warranty not worth the paper it was supplied with) finally new part blade holder reluctically supplied but still very bad vibration and this will PUT ME OFF Victa for life ONLY USED ON LAWN HOUSEHOLD USE

Not as good as my 21 year old Victa mower – Bought last month from local mower specialist and used several times. Previous good experience with Victa Corvette bought 21 years ago. This mower… Read more

feels heavier to push, cuts grass well ( haven't tried mulcher attachment yet), doesn't get close enough to solid objects and I managed to knock height adjust lever while manoeuvring around gardening edging. Easy to start, throttle control not as smooth as it could be. Catcher is same dimensions as previous mower.

Good mower – I got one of these, Rapid Start one, a few months ago. I did have issues with it supposedly starting fast. No prime, just put it in run position and… Read more

pull. Was told it would start easy first to second pull every time. It didn't. Took 5 to 10 pulls and even then it took a minute or so to run ok. So I checked the spark plug. The gap was wrong. It had been fitted with the gap at .30, is supposed to be .20 I set it to .20 and bingo, first pull it fired up. If you get one and like mine its not easy to start, check the spark plug gap and set it to .20 It now starts easy and runs great. The easy clean feature where you connect a hose to the chassis then run it is lame. It does not clean it properly at all. It only cleans about half of it. I dont bother using it now. I just tip it up and use a stick to scrape the collected grass underneath away. Using the hose thing is just messy and a bad idea. Whomever thought it was never thought it out properly. Sounds good but doesn't work. Otherwise, its really good fuel wise using heaps less than my old Lawnkeeper. Much more power too in long grass. Just check the Plug gap if it has starting issues.

Just a tough little mower that keeps on running! – I live out in a rural town and bought this mower to trim small patches around trees and by the house. For this specific purpose this mower has been… Read more

fantastic. Starts every time on one pull and a tank gives me quite a few hours of mowing. I had issues with the catcher but there are work arounds so that was not an issue for me.

Awesome mower – Brought this mower from Pilcher's Mitre 10 in Bowen this mower is best the oil is still clean and not black ad gummy and the little 125cc engine does the job. I really recommend this mower Show details

Great classic lawn mower, very powerful with the 160cc two stroke engine. Being the VEX60 engine it has the most powerful Victa two stroke engine… Read more

before they were discontinued. This is definitely noticable as it feels like it’s got more grunt than my 4 stroke 190cc Mustang and doesn’t bog down unless the grass gets really thick/wet. It is a little bit louder than the 4 stroke though.

As with all Victa two strokes, the kill switch on the carby is a bit finicky and I have had trouble with it twice not turning off but you can get new rubber boots for them or bypass the switch altogether. As these are long discontinued and you’ll be buying second hand, I do recommend doing some research on maintenance. Very easy and parts are still plentiful at the time of writing

The full alloy deck is ideal as there is no corrosion and also very light and easy to manoeuvre. 19” edge to edge deck I love as it leaves very little to sometimes zero edge to whipper snip. The plastic skirts also prevent the base scratching your garden edging though the plastic does wear out if you’re constantly running against it. The height of cut can go very low pretty much until it hits dirt and the 4 blade system cuts very well

The catcher has two adjustable vents at the back which help it fill up all the way, though it is still little small for my liking.

All in all it is a great mower with plenty of grunt, ideal for medium sized lawns. I have a 700m2 block with a fair amount of lawn and feel this mower is perfect
