You shouldn't have to pay more than £1400 inclusive for an 18hp Briggs

Check out 'Universal Engine Power' - (www.uni-power.co.uk) .  They are always good for a competitive deal

Just paid £1400 for 23hp kohler engine imported from USA.

So I'd say Briggs and Stratton 18hp probably in this country would be no more.
