It’s time. You’re new to the sport of dune buggy driving, but you’ve seen enough, it looks hot. Now it’s time for you to get involved and buy that first dune buggy. But before you buy there’s some things you need to consider.
The first is to decide if you should build or buy a dune buggy. Now for many that’s just not an issue. Building a dune buggy is a long process that requires skills, and lots and lots of time. And you don’t take it on lightly. Dune buggies are like any other vehicle, if you decide to build one you really need to know what you’re doing. Don’t try to build your own buggy unless you’re confident.
So if you’re not building it’s time to get started on buying one. There’s a lot of dune buggies for sale, but not all of them are ideal for you. So here’s a few tips on getting started as a dune buggy buyer.
First comes a consideration of your needs. What do you need your buggy to do? For example there are many who just use their buggy to cruise the streets, not that there’s anything wrong with that. But if so your needs will be quite different to someone who wants to get into the sand.
For example it needs to be street legal. No point in buying a buggy and finding out that you can’t take it on the road. And there’s really no point in buying a buggy with great four wheel drive for instance, if it doesn’t need 4wd to cruise the streets. You’re just spending money on something that you don’t need.
How many people will you need to carry? Now you’re not going to be taking the whole family shopping in your buggy, but there are still plenty of people who love to take along someone else. Maybe you’d like to take your girlfriend with you on a sand dune weekend. No use in a single seater. And you can buy buggies that take 4 people, though there’s not many.
What size do you want? This relates to what you want to do with your buggy, but there’s some other factors involved too. How much storage space do you have? It wouldn’t be the first time someone bought a buggy then found they couldn’t fit it into the garage.
And have you got a trailer? If not then you have to buy one but if you already have a trailer then the buggy you buy has to fit, or else you have to buy another trailer.
And you need to find out more about dune buggy lingo. Like many sports there is a language all it’s own and to fit in you need to learn it. What is a sandrail? What is a Baja Bug?
And you need to learn all about motors, because once you have your own buggy you’re going to be spending a lot of time with motors. You might know it already, but you’d be surprised at how many start in buggies with limited mechanical knowledge. You don’t need to be an expert but start learning the basics. It’s fun and part of being a buggy owner.
This may all sound a bit basic to the seasoned buggy drivers out there, but for the person just looking to get into the sport there are some basic questions to answer. Do your homework. And if you’re not prepared to build one you’ll need to find a great dune buggy for sale, and buy it, but only after you’ve sorted out exactly what it is you need.
And of course start saving, you’ll need some money. There are some wonderful place where you can find cheap dune buggies for sale online, there’s plenty on my website, but it’s not a cheap sport. So start saving for your first dune buggy today.
