Te;, I have heard rumours of a new buggy and a re-release of the CAT 2000, not sure how accurate those are now, but it would be nice to see.

Could be tough for them to get a foot hold in the offroad market with the current crop of very high class offroaders that have been released.

Mr.Schumacher came to Kidderminster National to 'check it out' but I'd be surprised beyond words if they ever made a 4WD buggy again.

it would be so cool if they released a 4wd buggy, and a 2wd.

I wish AE would make a 4wd buggy, but alas I think the BJ4 saw end to that (Well, its pretty much the AE buggy) and Xray, imagine how nice the qaulity would be on an xray buggy

How about a composite, with twiglets and bonded spaghetti, that might make it stronger?

I asked Schumacher and they said there is no news yet and that they had no definite plans right now.
Hmmmm.

I emailed Robin last year and he said not in the forseeable future maybe '08. They are doing well with touring cars and the rtr market as well as tyres.
