Hi guys,

I've been interested in buying a GoKart / offroad buggy for some time, something to play with, also for the educational / mechanical interest.
I don't own a field I could use it in, so what other options / locations are there??

I'm at the top of the M25, so somewhere reasonably close, however would be happy to 'cart it around' (pun intended) if needs be on a trailer.  :)

Ask a local farmer.

CONVINCING a farmer sounds like hard work! Easier option might just be to move to a big house in the country, with plenty of land. ;)

That's what I was thinking.

Unless you're already pals with them I'd expect the answer to be...' Get orrrf moy laaand!!'.

:lol exactly. They wouldn't be too pleased about the thought of an offroad buggy screaming around their field.

.....suppose you could do it anyway, as they'd be unlikely to catch you in a Tractor. Until you ground it attempting to get across a ditch into the next field - like something that would happen in "Police Interceptors" on TV, where the dumb criminals take to a field in a regular hatchback to "escape" the cops! lol.
