Boys will be boys

As my other half said when I told her about my new toy

It is a:-

Motorama Urban Buggy

Fully Road Legal 'off road' style buggy. 150cc four stroke engine with automatic gearbox with reverse and electric start. Front & rear lights with indicators and digital speedometer. Adjustable front & rear suspension, disk brakes all round, parking brake.

Now all I need is a bit of sunshine.

Mud flats outside your gaff should do nicley, that Sea wall would make a good ski ramp. You could get Paul to sit in his Pikey van serving hot drinks and selling lucky heather to passers by

I would only have a problem with Nos buying something like that if he didn't let me have a go.

Two questions,

1. Will it fit in that thunderbox / zap cat thingy you have bought,

2. Therefore can you do a beach landing and drive straight off the boat up the beach for the Priory BBQ ?

It's not been yet established whether Nauti himself fits in the thundernut.

Despite his racing snake profile

Not sure Paul will be allowed to do that in Port Solent, as I think Richard is the local agent for lucky heather..

Sorry didn't mean to sound like I was saying it was unstable , My nieghbour was a loonie in his and as it starts to roll the urge to stick your arm out is only natural , you can imagine the result .
Just strap in tight and keep you hands on the wheel then it don't matter .

It's not the toys themselves which are inherently unstable

I think I might have to find some dunes or mud and race Nauti when I finish my new toy...

GS850 with GS1100 motor, knobblies, renthals and a motocross style stand up and hang on sidecar...
