Who really cares? I'll assume that is a serious question so I will answer it.
The people who are answering the two questions on the two different forums seem to care. Here are the two posts which are slightly different and offer different information and therefore will generate different answers.
Hello, I garden in evenings and weekends for people. I started at the beginning of this year and have now built up buissness a bit and have own van tools etc. I am looking to buy a lawnmower for next year and would like to know what would be the best I could get for under £500? Is for small to large size gardens and would ideally be quick and efficient to keep my prices low and customers happy! Thanks, James
Hello, looking to buy a lawn mower that will be good for small to big gardens! Would be used on evenings and weekends so not looking to break the bank but on the same hand need something fairly large and good quality, So I can offer customers good value and service. If someone can point me in the right direction I would be greatfull. Thanks, James
Not having seen the post with the information about £500 I offered my answer which suggested a Cub Cadet. Clearly if I had seen both posts I would not have given that answer as the Cub Cadet costs about 3 times the amount which makes my answer useless to the OP. Having all the information in a single question will generate better answers for the original poster.
Not knowing about the UK element I was giving answers based on US brands and my own experience. If I had the extra information I would have suggested other, less expensive brands or models. I have friends in the UK and would have asked them to chime in with answers for moderately priced mowers. Perhaps something like this:

Hope the original poster can find an affordable machine and make his customers happy.
