Hi, no the VBRM16 doesn't have a magnetic strip in the UK. There is a similar robotic mower that will be coming out very shortly, from Lawnmaster, that does in deed come with the magnetic strip. I will be reviewing this mower later this week (w/c 17 March 2025), if you subscribe to my YouTube channel, link below, you will get notified when uploaded. You will have to click the bell icon. Therefore if this is something you want you may want to wait for this model.
