We will be in Belize in March and want to check out the mainland areas south of Belize City. We are looking at possibly moving there. We are interested more in PG, but want to check out the towns along the coast anyway as we would consider anything ...

Bringing down quads atv's by bwd61
I plan on moving to Belize hopefully by the end of the year. Wondering if anyone has imported 4x4 quads. If so is there a certain brand that anyone in Belize can service or get parts for? Also as for duty would it be best to import a new quad or one ...
Thanks for your input. I was leaning towards used ones as I can work on them myself if needed. I was just worried about getting parts the duty on them. I figured a couple of 4x4 with winches would be great little workhorses on our place in the cayo. Read More
