I am the same as you Zil - Not an owner, and never got round to buying a 4x4 but always wanted one, and whilst going a million miles an hour on track
(2 or 4 wheels) does turn me on - I've alsy got a real hankering for the (proper) off roading that guys n girls get up to...
Ditto - I've looked at these before and been quite intrigued. Within the realms of a self-build and obviously fun to use.
One observation though is where people use them. From what I've read and seen (YouTube) these are popular in the US and places like Iceland
where space, terrain, regulation (or lack of) etc. allow them to be used. There's not many places in the UK you could use these without people
objecting.

That's quite an awesome little beastie, quite fancy one as I used to enjoy a bit of (light) offroading.
This thread sent me on a offroading YouTube spree and thought this clip was cool, the vehicle in it is nowhere near as interesting as it's
fairly standard, just thought the bloke did well to not panic
