Thanks for the advice everyone!
I have gone with the CTEK MXS 5.0 and it is on the buggy now just doing an initial check and charge before my MOT tomorrow!

Thanks for guidance guys and gals..
To answer a point... I would drive it regularly but work/kids often make that impractical and i want to know it is there ready as and when i want it.  ;-)up

Hi Guys & Gals,
I wondered if anyone has experience and can recommend a battery trickle charger/conditioner etc which i can plug my buggy into (and leave plugged in) while it is asleep in the garage to make sure the battery is in tip top condition for when i want to drive it about.
Many Thanks, A.

Hi,
They are not wide 5. they are 4 stud. the drums are wider than standard beetle drums so they offer better braking. I was told on buggies this means the fronts are less likely to lock up and hence why they are a good option while keeping things reasonably standard (bolt pattern, cheap easy to find spares, etc). Hope that helps, A.

Pair of axles for sale. bought to do a IRS buggy project that never happened.
Been dry stored but for a while so will need refurbishing.
Based near Diss on Norfolk/Suffolk border.
I am not sure what they may be worth but as i need to put a price i will start at £200 for the pair.
I would post a picture but not sure how. (if anyone can help that would be nice) or PM me and i can send a photo.
Any Questions please ask.

Have to confess i looked at this and then didn't think it suitable for me based on the amount of potential work required to make sure it was safe to kart the kids around in... but love the look of it!  :)

Only one thing is certain, if you don't bid you won't win it.

I did bid almost to the end but then thought about how much i had to spend to get it the way i wanted and so i had reached my limit or being sensible... also have to buy a house so a buggy may have to wait!!

I would contact the seller just in case he did not sell it. I have bought stuff like this in the past

I might do that but he didn't answer my other questions on that buggy so i doubt it.
Not to worry the right buggy att he right time and price will turn up!

That was the grey Doon wasn't it. yes cheap but had i bid would it have gone up by loads? it's always the question with Ebay! Had i bid would i have had to bid twice that to win it??  :-\

Thanks for the steer Dave but it doesn't really grab me unfortunately. it does tick the rear seat box and few others as well.

Thanks guys.. both auctions have been ended so i guess it's sold by other means!
Would have suited me with the rear seats for the kids... any others out there??

Hi All, I have spotted a buggy on Ebay I am thinking of bidding on.... But it is miles away!!
Just wondered if anyone would be willing to go and look at it and report back for me please?
Many Thanks, A.

Indeed i hope they put it on the road as well! I just know that i couldn't have put the time in to build it properly. So that's why i need a Bounty Hunter that is done or nearly so!!!  :)

I am selling a shell as i don't have time space etc to do it myself but i would like a complete buggy i can drive straight away!
And i suppose they do look similar which shows my tastes don't vary too much!
To be honest i don't feel as i will get a buggy as i have too much other stuff going on but doesn't stop the dreaming!!
So someone has bid on the ebay auction so it will sell!
Just clearing out all the old stuff also as i will be loosing both my garages soon due to a change in owner! so have to consolidate!
Thanks to all for comments! :-)
