Perenties only have good features. Simple, strong, reliable and fixable.

The 6x6 is both longer and wider than a 4x4. The 6x6 is also much slower.

Only if you are used to hairdresser cars. They are actually quite simple to drive, although some of the gearboxes can take a bit of practice to get used to. Other than that there is nothing difficult about driving them.

Every now and then a hardtop version will come up for sale. Some owners have also converted theirs using secondhand panels. Some of these are successful; some not so much. We do have some panels available; contact us for details.
