If you buy from HK and do not pay Duty you are breaking the law.
Thats one reason to buy from UK.
Another is for after sales support, if you buy from HK you will be lucky to get any help if you have a problem.
It is expensive racing model cars but then what hobby isnt now?
I understand the temptation of buying abroad but everyone needs to understand the consequences for our Hobby long term as without any shops to offer the help and advice especially for beginners (as i am sure most of us have had to get into RC). then numbers will eventually drop and the market will be forced to make price increases worldwide.
