Great experience dealing with Craig. We were after a capable electric off-road UTV for the farm, after doing some research, came across the Tuatara, which seemed to fit the bill perfectly. Craig knew his product, answered all our questions and went out of his way with availability and delivery flexibility.Importantly, his after sales service has been exceptional. Love our Tuatara and can't recommend Craig and UVQ highly enough.
That atv arrived as described and on time never saw it in person just went on reviews and research took for a drive up a knarly hill with washouts loose rocks etc it just ate it wasn't till 1 wheel come off the ground I engaged difflocks and it drove straight out of it. Very happy customer right here will do everything I need around this farm that's for sureA big thank you to Craig the salesman in Qld very helpful and willingCheers Mick
We bought the electric Tuatara - what a game changer! Easy to get in and out of and very quiet. Runs for two weeks on a single charge. We charge it up on sunny days via our solar panels, so cost is minimal. Great working height of the tilt tray too. Very pleased we got the front and rear windscreens as we have a lot of Golden Ord Spiders in our olive grove and it stops them hitting your face. We are in the process of putting fake grass on the black tray matting so its not too hot for the dogs to stand in the back. Highly recommend one of these to anyone wanting to buy one for their farm. Craig is easy to work with and very helpful in explaining all the safety features of the Tuatara. Thanks Craig.
Craig and the team know the ins and outs of all their products and deliver a great product at a great price.
Incredibly practical farm vehicle. Great service and after sales service. Charged from 44% in 2 1/4 hours from our 6kVA stand alone solar.
Excellent machine, exactly what I was looking for and more, I wouldn’t wait any longer to buy one right now, just imagine how easy your life could be.
We went looking for a better option after struggling with bad buggies, service issues, and cheap sub quaility parts. Found Tuatara through a mate and was very surprised!These vehicles are a small tank compared to other farm "side by sides".I can get to all the greese points, I can get to all the components.The best bit too was the speed of answers. We asked a question and Craig was onto it.Ill update this post in 10-12 months once we have run them in and give a more practical 'uesage' review. but the first week has been a blast.
When I was looking for a 3 or 4 seater farm buggy, I could not find anything suitable until I came across the website of Tuatara UTV's. The owner, Craig, helped me with making an educated choice by showing and let me drive the 2 models, a petrol and an electric version, both very powerful and versatile 3 seater off road machines.My petrol version was personally delivered by Craig to my farm within a week. Great customer service and I look forward getting lots of use out of it.
Craig runs his business out of my Clontarf yard, and he goes out of his way to help his customers, and his Tuatara buggies are great machines, I recommend you check them out.
