How to buy a dune buggy for all your sand adventures?

What is a dune buggy? 

A dune buggy is also known as a beach buggy, a recreational motor vehicle with large wheels and wide tires. It’s a bare-bone vehicle designed to drive over sand dunes and beaches where normal cars cannot. Buggies allow you to discover the beauty of sand dunes and help to meet your inner adventurer and enjoy life. 

Dune buggies are a superb combination of fun and versatility. You can go to those places where a car gets struck, such as sand-hopping or mud-bogging. Big sand dunes provide a perfect location to let loose and have all the fun. Older kids, teens and adults can have a lot of buggy thrills that will make your day.  

• Dune buggies come in various sizes, so you need to figure out what size you want. Choose the engine size and the number of people that can safely ride in a buggy, which varies from one to four people. 

• Check out the buggy’s configuration and think where you will use the vehicle so that you can decide on the configuration that will work best for your UTV. The configuration options for dune buggies also include horsepower, suspension and accessories. Some buggies have a higher lift from the ground that allows better coverage of road hazards. 

• Think of how you’ll transport the buggy. Some buggies are street legal, so that you can drive them to your destination. Whereas you can drive the other buggies to remote locations or in places cleared for use. You’ll also need a trailer to tow the buggy to your location if it isn’t street legal.  

• Lastly, you have to decide your budget for purchasing a buggy that you have in mind. 

Drive safe

Australia is one of the best places for driving and riding off-road. It’s due to the variety of climates, terrains, wide-open spaces and sparse population in many areas that make it a real off-roading wonder. Besides all of this, it is equally essential to drive safely and with caution. 

Although off-road vehicles like dune buggies arrive built with a road cage keeping the driver’s safety in mind. It comes specifically designed to avoid major injuries as a last resort. But roll cages will not protect you from dirt, debris and other hazards while off-roading. 

It depends on what terrain you’re travelling through; the safety needs can differ widely. If it’s a hot desert drive, you need to wear a long-sleeved t-shirt and pants for protection against sunburn and whipping by sand. If you drive your buggy in winters, then wear a heavy coat and gloves to keep warm. 

In all weather conditions, wearing a helmet is a wise decision. It offers you extra protection during any major mishaps. Besides, it also shields your eyes and ears.
