Well done Bugger and team on this. You guys surely love what you do and I'm sure the clients drive away with a smile on their faces.
Question or concern I have, the "truck taillights", do they offer any reflection/reflectors, or are you going to have to incorporate some reflectors bar the registration plate?

Yes we do love our job as it is a Passion not only a Job

Would be great to see a flash light reflection, especially on the back.

If there is more then one, and built by Pierre
Then surely they should be called "Buggery's"

Looks good! What would the cost be of a build like the orange buggy, or can I contact you via e-mail?

Hi You can contact me by e-mail then we can chat as every client have a different Budget and we work accordingly
But a fresh build from scratch a buggy shell new is about R16K so you can make a few Quick calculations
Cheapest now adays is to buy a running one and Paint and detail them that way as your personal one
that was how we did the Pink one the owner gave us a Budget and we had to work with the Budget and do the job
But lets chat and I can see how we can help you sort one out for you as your own
