Stew Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 We rolled a maverick at the weekend! I can get you a deal on it if you want! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted October 19, 2011 Author Share Posted October 19, 2011 Thanks for all the suggestions Going to go on the search for a Fourtrak by the looks of things as there aren't many suzuki sj's about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Thanks for all the suggestions Going to go on the search for a Fourtrak by the looks of things as there aren't many suzuki sj's about! They are snapped up by the 'proper' 4x4 guys. No overhangs, SWB, robust...... Perfect litlle 4x4 for abusing properly. Fourtracks aren't bad, Sportracks are worth a gander too as they are smaller. The Maverick we were playing with at the weekend..... After my mate drove it.... After we rolled it back on it's rubber! Drove out the field fine on three tyres so we could continue riding the banshee, driving the fastrac and blasting clays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted November 1, 2011 Author Share Posted November 1, 2011 Did you tip it on flat land Stew? This weekend we picked up a Suzuki Vitara hardtop 1.6 T reg with 35k on the clock for £1400. Don't know what to do with for summer next year though........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I didn't roll the Maverick.... my mate did! It was on flat ground but it was bumpy as hell! Really rough stubble field. I just about went flying off the banshee quad (you can see the black quad behind the shoguns) when going for a flat out spin. I could barely hold on due to the bumps and I have plenty of weight to keep it planted! We had to go across the rutts as next to the shoguns we had a pull set up and were shooting so best to stay behind the area where people are pointing shotguns..... Vitaras are pretty capable with good tyres on. My mate used to nab his mums when had just passed his test. We had great fun in that trying to make it go 'anywhere' and it pretty much did. On normal tyres it'd go nowhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruddles Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Never heard of manhunter? It seems a fairly robust vehicle, going from a zed into a 1.6 4x4 is a bit strange though....power.... As for the tyres I think they're sort of road/light field type tyres I'll have to check later! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
