What our clients have to say

“I have one 45 degree bank, 5 metres high, of mostly boulders to descend and climb to access one track. It does it with ease. The robust construction, clever 4WD system and diff lock means there’s almost no limit to where you can take it, even 200 mm deep water just slows it down! Brilliant machine……and the seats pretty comfortable too”
