Title: Just won a mule
Post by: spandit on November 25, 2014, 11:39:22 pm
There was a Kawasaki Mule on eBay and I've just won it, hopefully for a good price (£700). It's 2 wheel drive so hoping it will be up to the job of moving mulch around...

The model (2500) was being made in 1993, so won't be older than that. Seller hasn't answered my communications so not sure whether they'll honour the sale yet, but eBay will charge them commission regardless

I'm disappointed  :(  There was me thinking you'd acquired a real mule - the equine kind  :horse:  :D

I thought for a second it was a mule sheep!  :roflanim:  Then I thought it might be a brand new kawasaki mule. Mules are very reliable, I remember driving one a few years back it was awesome and very good for bringing feed to the animals.

Yes it was. A mile up the road and he's delivering it tomorrow!

Well, it's here and it works. Pretty rough condition as expected but means I won't mind using it. Pictures to follow
