I know there are some others around at this price but this one is very good value at £99.99 as its a rebranded Lawn King R484 BS with a 3.5hp Briggs & Stratton engine not some rubbish. Its push along but its very light for a petrol and has just hacked the first cut of the season down in one go.
Still priced in my store at more (and plenty in stock) but scans as the web price at £99.99, as a Lawn King it cost £169!

I bought one of these a month ago and I can confirm it is an excellent buy when bought with the £5 off voucher for £50 spend available to print off using the link provided elsewhere on this site making it £94.99
Actually it is not a Briggs and Stratton Engine, but some chinese brand I have never heard of but it is an easy to start and fairly quiet engine compared to my previous Briggs and Stratton mower and the advantage over the B & S is that it has a choke rather than the little rubber plunger device you have to press numerous time for a cold start on the B & S engine.
The Mountfield version in B&Q seems to have this engine too and they are around the £160 mark like the Lawnking
You have to buy a bottle of oil (4.99 ish) and obviously petrol then you are ready to mow!
Overall a recommended buy as with the voucher is it cheaper than the Homebase, B & Q and Argos equivalents and actually has a slightly larger cut width than them.0
