Have a look on ebay and search for "Off Road".

There are some great little off road kids buggies for sale and allot safe than a quad.

How old are they, my mate just bought a quad for his 3 year old (to go with his PW50) and got a cracking deal (about £750 brand spanking new including remote kill switch). Age will determine the size of quad, although my mate can ride with his lad on his with no problem at all.

The problem with kids bikes and quads is that they don't lose much second hand, you might save a couple of hundred quid but you'll have to pay for wear and tear, swings and roundabouts, mate

Hello

They look like fun! A quick scan looks to put them at £1000 though!

Are they safe? How fast do they go?

Steve.

They are excellent fun, have been out on a friends one with the kids, the 50cc is not dangerously fast but is ample enough for the kids, you can restrict the speed for them to if they are a bit small, they are also fantastic fun for the adults to, spend hours riding through the woods....

I got a little "Lem" 50 cc in yellow and black for my 4 yr old (suitable for 4-12). Has smaller throttle grips for the little hands and can be restricted speed wise.

Goes really well & I can fit on it.....

Sourced from John Vines call them on 01268 774000
