Bought new by a shire horse stud farm in the Harpenden area

The Kawasaki MULE may not be a classic car but, having been in continuous production since 1988, it’s certainly a classic in the UTV (utility terrain vehicle) class. In its original guise, the MULE (Multi-Use Light Equipment) was a lightweight open-cab two-seater powered by a water-cooled 454cc twin-cylinder engine, with continuously variable transmission, all-round independent suspension and a locking rear differential. Over the years, numerous variations were spawned, making the MULE a practical (and fun) vehicle for a range of environments, from farms to golf courses to industrial sites.
We are offering a remarkable 2014 610 model, which despite being 11 years old can fairly be called almost brand-new. Powered by a 401cc air-cooled, four-stroke single-cylinder engine, it features a two-speed automatic transmission with selectable four-wheel drive. It was bought new by the elderly owner of a shire horse stud farm near Harpenden, with a pre-delivery inspection undertaken in 2015 by Oliver Landpower Ltd. of Kings Langley. However, after a major operation left the owner unable to drive the MULE, it was placed into storage and only re-emerged when the vendor acquired it in 2023. He immediately recommissioned it and brought it up to road-legal standards with a full lighting set and indicators, and it received its registration in November, 2024. A new windscreen was fitted earlier this year.
The MULE is complete with the current V5C, the original, unstamped service book and a letter from Kawasaki confirming its date of manufacture as 13th November, 2014, but perhaps the most remarkable thing is that it is offered having received, we are assured, no more than 42 hours of use. An equivalent brand-new MULE would cost £23, 000 plus VAT, but this one is exempt from VAT, so if you need a little off-road runabout, this has got to be worth your consideration.
