Buyer's Premium:

This custom-built three-wheeled off-road utility vehicle, or petrol-powered trike, features a bespoke welded steel frame finished in dark green paintwork. The vehicle is powered by a single-cylinder four-stroke petrol engine equipped with a manual pull-start mechanism and a centrifugal clutch transmission. It is fitted with Kenda Scorpion knobby off-road tyres mounted on pressed steel rims. The rear section incorporates a suspension system with dual red coil-over shock absorbers. Notable features include bespoke aluminium mudguards, a padded black vinyl seat with an integrated backrest, and a front-mounted black wire cargo basket. The handlebars are equipped with integrated twist-grip throttle and hand-operated brake controls. A green pressurized cylinder is mounted behind the seat, likely serving as an auxiliary fuel source. No manufacturer plates, VIN numbers, or registration markings are visible on the vehicle.

The odometer reading was not visible during inspection; therefore, the mileage is unverified.


Condition report:

The vehicle is in used condition and appears to be a bespoke or highly modified DIY project. There is visible surface corrosion across the steel frame, suspension components, and engine exterior. The dark green paintwork and aluminium mudguards show various scuffs, scratches, and minor indentations consistent with utility use. The black vinyl seat is intact without significant tears. Mechanical components are present but have not been tested for operational status.
