Anybody had owt to do with these. 12 year old daughter has had a couple of quads for a few years. I thought this might be the next toy.

My other thoughts, i was thinking of getting her a scrap car so her and her mates could get used to clutch and peddles. This thing has obviously got the mini gearbox.
I doubt many her age will ever use a manual gearbox. They will all be electric or auto when they vet on the road

can see where you're coming from, but at 12, she's only got another 5 years, 'fore she'll be nagging you to take her driving ... there'll still be plenty of conventional ICE motors about in '28 .... they'm all dreeeeeaming if they think there'll be none by 2030 ....... aaaaand there seems to be no 'plans', ref. H2, ICE powered vehicles at all

The price is £650. I've been white water rafting this week with my mate and his for kids. It cost £60 a go. So he paid £300 for the 1 afternoon then he did 2 other activities at same price. So this buggy is cheap in that respect

We probably had the best scenario. Rain a few days before then a sunny day for us.
They hype it up more than it is, but a good afternoon.

Been look at doing the exact same thing for my daughter, just everyone wants mega money for piles of sh!t nowadays, don't get me wrong I'm not looking for a minter, but where's all the £150 scrappers that have good engines just failed an mot gone?
Jesus 5 years ago I bought a Volvo 940 estate for £500 did sod all to it mechanically, and drove it 2150miles across Europe, then sold it a couple to use as a mini camper van who were traveling around Europe for a year.

I never even looked for a car. This thing should be ok. I'm looking forward to having some fun myself in it
