TURNKEY & RESTORATION SPECIALISTS

Manx Buggy2.png

We are currently experiencing supply chain issues. Availability of key components in our turnkey builds has meant construction times are greatly increased. 

Our order book is currently full until Autumn 2024. If you are considering a turnkey build or restoration please get in touch with your requirements, but bear in mind your Beach Buggy will not be completed until Winter 2024. Thank you to all our previous and current customers for their patience and support.

CHASSIS PREPARATION 

Buggy Builders have a selection of long and short wheel base chassis available to start a build. We are always on the lookout for suitable donor vehicles, which is of course the humble classic Volkswagen Beetle.
