why are quads sooo expensive :/

[AzMaN 0]

I got rid of my pajero the other month in favor of getting somthing a bit more ecconomical and then a little quad for going round the land lamping and im starting to regret that idea now

 

all the quads on ebay n the like are either useless road legal ones that would get stuck in a small puddle. or old 1990's models that look like they have been draged through a warzone and still silly money.

 

why are they worth soo much??, im considering geting an old 4x4 car and just choping the roof off instead.

the old petrol models are bloody good work horses and last we have a honda thats 24years old . and kawasaki bayou 22years old both have had a hard life but still working so they are good value for the money we paid for them 8 years ago .you can get into areas that a 4x4 cant they do less damage to the fields. 360 vision cover the ground faster. hitch a little trailer on the back fill it with bags of corn get the corn right up to your feeders saves a lot of work and time.err but you do get cold and wet then again you would get cold and wet if you cut the top of a 4x4. atb.just an after thuoght folks anybody useing older quads than me not hi jacking azman thread just wanting to show him how long these vehicles last.

Aye

 

have to admit I thought about the same, but when I saw the price of a half decent quad,I just put another engine in the Pajero and will keep it for another few years.
