polaris rzr

Anyone got one ?

Dreamt of one for a couple of years

Wife wouldn't buy me one for Christmas

They look great on YouTube, but they are VERY pricey in basic form as purchased, before you start adding all the trick bits...

Hence building my own buggy (again) ...

I think everyone wants one if these haha I've used the ranger model while hunting but that's more a tool than a toy like the rzr still great fun!

No but definitely want! Or a Rage Comet... 200hp and road legal...

There a hoot, But I suspect you would get bored of it quickly. I've not long took redundancy from a military firing range,
And we had several polaris rangers 4x4 and a John deer gator 6x4. We needed something more agile so polaris lent us a top spec rzr to trial (thrash). It was very nice, fox shock lots of stainless shiny bits, quick to 60 mph but felt very fragile. We trialed a lot of different vehicles, tracked multi wheeled. In the end we went for two 6x6 rangers petrols and a diesel gator 4x4. When I left four months ago the Gators were running fine, all of the polarises were broken, only 18 month old.
And that is there problem, They break very easily and are expensive to fix. That's why it will become boring having to have it fixed, As new with warranty dealer only repair and the electrical side of them are a pain. Far to much of it and too complicated. But if money was no object I'd probably have one.
I think they wanted near 16 grand for the rzr we had on trial.

They looked awesome at the 4x4 show at Donnnington with all the trick bits on them, but as everyone has alreay said, very expensive to buy, and must be horrendously expensive to modify, then expensive to fix... definatley not in the range of us jimny owning people... to go thrash it around off road is asking to break something, not like you can get a used driveshaft from ebay is it......

and anyway it'd be useless for the greenlaning we do, it'd get stuck in the LR ruts with those little wheels on or beached on the rocks .. and do they have a heater? no doors so must be a bit cool !
