★★★☆☆

written by coldwaterjohn on 13/08/2009

Owned T1800 for 4 seasons from new. As in previously owned Countax, the hydrostatic transmission gearbox is beginning to fail, and is enormously expensive to replace - I was quoted £800, on a machine which cost £3,000 new. Beyond warranty period Westwood will not contribute - I suspect eventual gearbox failure is a common problem with these transmissions, so be warned before you buy one, not to expect miracles much beyond the warranty period.

Symptoms to look out for are much reduced speed, and a failure to tackle even mild slopes with collector box mounted. Having been twice bitten by this manufacturer's product range, I will be replacing with soemthing more reliable next time...
