    I've not seen anything like that here, most lads I know use old Land Rovers or Suzukis to off road, the Zooks are gaining favour big time over the heavier 4x4s

    Despite what they say on the Storm Buggy and Crossan websites, I think you'd struggle to register one here for the road. They also appear to be only 2wd?

    I'd speak to Crossan as they claim to cover both sides of the border. http://www.thevisorshop.com/acatalog/Joyner_650cc_Buggys.html

    And have to go through a type approval process?
    Its possible but in Ireland things are never that easy.

    I had one before I would not reccomend the 650 they are very soft broke my heart there is a reason they give you 1 year parts warranty because you will be constantly stuck underneath fixing something. If you have the extra cash get the 1100 much sturdier piece of kit and better craic best of luck whatever you decide
