My Losi 8IGHT-E NOW SOLD
Only for occasional playing in the park - never raced.
It's spending far too much time in the shed.

It's a damn shame to waste the car, as I'm sure someone out there wants to give this a proper race, at a proper 8th scale track.
Now I don't know what to ask for this, so I'll list what's included, the new price for each, and at the end, a very negotiable price for everything.
Losi 8IGHT - this was nearly £400 new, which this was.
8IGHT-E Conversion - paid £65 for this.
Castle Mamba Monster Max with 2200kv - cost around £300 new
Futaba BLS451 Servo - currently about £80 for one of these.
Flightpower 4S Lipo - one 4350, one 5350 17C/28C - £30/£40 each?
8IGHT-E shell & 8IGHT shell (less cooling holes!) - both included
There are also some other tyres to include in the bundle.
And I'll include a few sets of springs; silvers, greens, blacks, as well as the roll bars - can't remember if they were in the kit or additional - they're there anyway.
I'll update this post with more detail tomorrow.
Plus the hardware to convert it back to nitro might still be in a box somewhere. If I can find it, I'll include it.
I've also added some small nice-to-haves, such as the covered wheel nuts and rear UJ guards.
All you need to add is TX, RX & lipo charger.
Now this little lot new would cost, I reckon would set you back about £1000. There's two shells to add to that, plus the cost of the nearly new HoBao Angle Spikes with Pro-line molded blue inserts.
I don't know what it's worth to anyone, but if someone offered me £390 for it, I'd accept that and that would include the postage, and the PayPal fees.
If you want to haggle, I'm open to offers.
Here's some more photos.
