Guest Leveller Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 It's a 350 it's fine for me, the terriers and the tools and can cope two up but you do notice when there's a passenger. Make sure you get four wheel drive it's not worth messing about with anything less. 1 Quote Link to post
The lonesome boatman 20 Posted September 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 thanks Leveller. How much for tax, and insurance Quote Link to post
redcharge 378 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 I have a Honda Big Red just fuel up and away you go, they're bomb proof !!!! Although it's only a 2 wheel drive i've never had any problems getting stuck except for one occassion when I bottomed it out in deep tractor ruts. Quote Link to post
Guest Leveller Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 It's on agri tax so that's free and insurance varies Quote Link to post

whippet 99 2,613 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 2wd will go nearly anywhere........................... Quote Link to post
sikastag_1 689 Posted September 15, 2012 Report Share Posted September 15, 2012 Like to see somebody showing me a 2wd quad go anywhere, then I'll take them to anywhere and tell them to show me again lol, if your going to be going over rough ground steep etc don't be wasting your time with a 2wd quad mate, if it's only normal lowland fields etc you'd maybe be alright but still need to watch, 300cc+ bigger the better IMO, and as already been said Hondas the way forward we had a Suzuki 250 before it was piss, Polaris sportsman 500 auto that was piss aswell, if you can't do it in a Honda you can do it and that's that lol IMO anyway, and they can take a beating. 1 Quote Link to post

Guest Leveller Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 2wd will go nearly anywhere........................... Maybe but nearly isn't good enough for me I need to get everywhere. Having said that sometimes even 4x4's get stuck 7 Quote Link to post
