~air fooled~ - May 6th, 2004 at 05:00 PM

hey guys have started gettin a horn for the manx buggies since hangin around here. am i right in assuming that an average to good myers (spelling?) manx would go for 5-7K?? also, appart from the lack of space, what are the pros and cons of owning such a beast??? thanks!!!

I reckon you are a bit out on the price a genuine manx would be $7k and up from there depending on motor and condition and the all important mod papers. If you see one cheaper could be a dud, a paperless nightmare, non-genuine, or in really bad nick. Other than that they are a great piece of fun, don't be held back by space everything can be over come. Best piece of advice I can give be prepared to spend because you get what you pay for. Make sure it is registered with mod plates and paperwork. Or go to experts and have them build one to your specs

If you are serious then I would join the manx club first so you can get in on the good buys...

I can put you onto a Manx or two for under $7k
