Default First ATV: 4x4 Or Sport ?

i cant make my mind up of whish one to choose, im stuck between two:
CVT 320e
325 4x4
both of them are Quadzilla but i was thinking if i buy a cvt 320e its going to be more fun offroad and look alot better but if i buy a 325 4x4 it will have more power and more uses for utilities but not be as fun offroad which one should i choose.
i would like precise details on why i should choose either one please.

It sounds like you're talking about a Chinese knock off of a mainstream brand. Personally, I'd avoid them like the plague unless you're a really good mechanic. If you have deep mud and steep rocky hill climbs I'd go with a 4wd. If it's just fairly smooth trails the sport can be more fun. Once again, I recommend avoiding the Chinese knockoffs. They're just not made well.

I have a Chinese ATV Baja 250 and must admit even though I have been pretty lucky with mine the are not for the type of person who doesn't mind always fixing something. My little guy has taken a pretty good beating and always comes back for more but I am also a automotive mechanic and have always been on top of any future or present issues with it. It reminds me of a FIAT...good luck

it cant be a knock off because because quadzilla is the number 1 quad brand in the uk so its pretty reliable, but i think i might buy a 4x4 cos it sounds like they can be much more versatile than a sport. thank

Looking at their website they appear to just be a hodge podge collection of chinese knock offs. You are going to regret it.

Yes, the Quadzilla was a model made by Suzuki in the late 80's, but it's also a brand of ATV that's currently sold in the UK.

I don't know anything about Quadzilla, but I would suggest maybe looking at something like a Polaris Scrambler or Can-Am Renegade. Sport and 4x4 together in one machine. I love my Scrambler.

Those quads on the website are the classic Chinese knockoffs of mainstream manufacturers' machines. The side by side looks like a Polaris RZR but underneath is a Chinese frame, transmission, and engine. The "X8" looks like a CanAm Outlander but again, is a knockoff. Run away!!!! If a manufacturer claims to be number 1, what do they mean by that? Number 1 at the pirating of others' patented models?

but ive seen other quadzillas before that were perfectly fine running, also other companies like the one near me wouldnt bother selling them if they were pirated its obviously a well established business. the only reason you think its a pirate is that youve probably never been on one in your life as you live in america, where you can find hundreds of good brands.
