Hello ODK members,

Here is the accompanying brochure for Rover's 1965/66 line-up.
Points of note are:

Rover Ranger
The Ranger was Rover's first ride-on lawnmower. It was clearly based on an American
design, but the design was so durable it would last for two decades. The original
catcher had a canvas top! Note the accessory attachments.


Tiller Mower
The Tiller-Mower is rare nowadays. Rover kept these in their catalogue for over a decade.
This is an example of a good idea that didn't catch on.


Rover Rider
The Rover Rider later became known - simply - as the Rover Slasher.
This machine was a huge success for Rover and a firm favourite for commercial uses.
