  • Fitted with a 150cc engine
  • Well-maintained from new
  • One family owner

Founded in 1996, Hammerhead subsequently established itself as the world’s largest manufacturer of all-terrain go-karts and buggies. Their tried and tested recipe typically comprised multi-tubular chassis frames with integral rollover structures, coil-over suspension, small capacity four-stroke engines (ranging from 150cc – 500cc) and CVT transmissions. Capable of 45mph and more, Hammerhead karts proved popular with farmers and surfers alike or indeed anyone with sufficient private land to exercise one.

In the current family ownership from new, this particular example is understood to date from 2005 or thereabouts. A Twister Kart, its Bright Red paintwork is complemented by Black upholstery and alloy wheels shod with suitably ‘knobbly’ tyres. Said to be ‘great fun’ and to have been ‘enjoyed by various grandchildren’, the Hammerhead has reportedly been treated to regular maintenance. Offered without reserve, it might just possess the highest ‘smiles per pound’ ratio of any vehicle in the sale!
