Lawnmower recommendation

Hi Guy's. I do a bit of this and a bit of that. I mow a few lawns for people in the Summer and other garden duties. I have had a Mountfield 18" push mower for a long time, it;'s now past it''s best, decks rusty and it's generally knackered to be honest. I also have an old Hayter 48 jubilee I use as a back up. I was going to get a second hand mower ( money's too tight to mention lol ) but am thinking maybe I'd be better of with a new budget mower. I guess it would be doing around 4 hours per week.
Any suggestions at max £200.00? Or just get what I can for that money? Must be 18" plus
Cheers

Thanks guy's, yeah I've seen that one. I also found a Wolf 20" push mower for about the same price, but was wondering whether it maybe to difficult to push weight wise at some places with longer grass and up hill etc?
Anyone any experience of 20" push mowers and weight?
