Go to camjam & see what they been selling them for. 9k is probably pushing the upper limits of a dealer that offers finance. 6-7k is a cash sell. the surf owners on here are a bit biased as to what they think there ...

Sorry, but a 15yo with no experience can STILL get behind the wheel, its not the driver who gets the card, but the vehicle. So again, how is this safer? How does a club president decide how good a driver is onroad, when they are joining to prove the vehicle is used off road? I have no problem ...

Re: new lifts laws

I personally can't see how this new law will improve safety. The only change is that you now need a "card" from an affiliated club if you go over 50mm (still need cet). How does this make a vehicle any safer to use on road? I'm not the devils advocate but you are obviously missing the point. it ...
