    have been looking for a second hand quad for mountain land. We have been looking at donedeal but I was just wondering if anyone else know of websites, businesses?

    Thanks

    IMHO the further south you go the dearer they get.

    Thanks for that, was having a look at northern Ireland websites last night but they were all mainly racing ones

    Where are you in the country?

    I can recommend both Gault Quads and Keys Quads in Fermanagh. Both are just a couple of miles from Enniskillen. They will be hard beaten on price - even private deals on donedeal and both will give honourable warranties.

    dnt go near keys quads anyway, after i gave them almost 3 grand for a yamaha quad which was a piece of scrap that less than 2 weeks later gave up and when it was brought back to them they jus sorta told me to f**k off! in one word GANGSTERS! best of luck with ur purchase but try going for a honda even tho theyre a wee bit dearer

    On the other hand,

    I know a couple of people who bought from Keys and found them very easy to deal with. One of them had an issue after 3 months and brought it back with the written warranty and it was repaired without question.

    Can you give us some details of the problem that you had? Was it wear and tear or a major part failure?

    Keys service the quad for one person that I know and they are pretty thourough and quite keen with price.

    the quad wouldnt run without the choke wen it was bought but it was supposedly bad fuel so we were told on the day and it would come ok, but it turns out the engine was wore and down on compression so needed a rebuild that cost us over 500 quid, thankfully we since got it traded in for a honda 500, brilliant bike! :)

    Have a Honda big red 300 4x4 if your interested , thinking of trading it in for a suzuki lt50 for the kids. PM me your mobile number and we can have a chat if you like. Bought it from Gaults , but stay clear from keys quads. Im based in Kildare.
