SAND-X Testdrive

Post by Sand-X »

Hi megamoe,

sorry, but don't believe that you have tried the SAND-X before!! I do all the testdrives for SAND-X in the UAE, and till now; hardly everybody bought one after testing. ..And 100% were convinced about the performance and how stable the SAND-X is to drive. Pls tell me where and when you had your SAND-X testdrive? ..can't remember!

Gulf News Article: http://www.sand-x.com/index.php?section ... easerId=20


-Thank you for the critics about the design, the pics are all from our second generation SAND-X machines in the middle east. All new machines will have a new front design.

- Price is not around 100k. A SAND-X costs 69'900 DHS

>>Anyway, like everybody else, you are more than welcome to test the machine somewhere and post your critics again!!

thnx and best rgds, sand-x

Dear Sand-X ... You came to the UAE last year to test your machine in the UAE desert, you contacted us and Dubai 4x4 as well .... we were not interested in the project at that time and the car was tested by most of our friends overthere and we got the feed back ....

To be frank the machine is very expensive for a fun toy (you said 69,000 Dirhams and I think this will be the base model), with this price I can buy a modified wrangler or actually a brand new stock one which still remains a car that can accommodate 4 people and have an AC .. Safety is much higher in a car of course .... A raptor will cost around AED 35,000 and can go better than sand X .... We are to criticizing your machine, we have to say our opinion ... If you think that you build the best machine in the world, then good for you ... But we don't see it is the best machine comparing to price .... With this price we have lots of better options

You said that everybody who test drove it in the UAE desert bought one ... I go to the desert min. once a week and I never saw a sand-x over there ... I am a friend with all the 4x4 clubs in the UAE and also outside the UAE .. No one even talked about sand-x ...

Dear if you are expecting people to respect your invention, you have to accept and respect their opinion as well ...

Dear Iguana,


Of course I do respect all different kind of opinions; I also respect all kind of critics.

But I do absolutely know the people who tested the Sand-X, most of them are close friends from the Al Zarooni clan and friends from dubai who, believe me, were totally positive about the Sand-X. I never heard the critic of unstableness or unconfortable. And, a raptor will not climb up a dune faster, but the thing with the AC..I agree totally..

The first container of SAND-X machines will arrive in Dubai middle of September; thats why there are just few testmodels in the desert right now.

But anyway, the only thing which counts is, that everybody has a lot of fun outthere with theirs beautiful toys!!!

For me the Sand X looks like a Snow Mobile with front wheels.

I believe that it goes like crazy on Sand but 70 K for that Toy is really big money.

What you think about this crazy Vehicle?

Iam sure it also goes on Sand.
