Hmm.. what about Xray 808 (2009 spec)

[mark christopher]

or hotbodies d8, (world champion car)

there is no one car to have as you will find out!!

id go for the xray 808 they are really strong buggys and with xrays quality you cant go far wrong, the only down side is that the spares are quite expensive in the UK. i've also herd good things about the hotbodies D8's they seem really good for the money and the spares are quite cheap, if you are after somthing cheaper than the above the Caster ZX1-R buggys have had great reviews they are only 250 pound new and again the spares are cheap to
hope this helps

I would go for the Losi8 been running one for last 2 seasons, you can get the older version for around £190 from DMS, personally I find them simple to work on and keep clean and very easy to drive.

I've had the RC8, xray 808, losi 8ight and my vote would be for the losi. The xray is good but things like the drive pins wear too quick and the parts are too expensive. I now have the losi 2.0 and all the little niggly things from the first version have been addresed but at £190 for the original it's a bargain. If you race electric I think you will find the losi easiest to drive.

If you something fairly cheap, competative and damn near bullet proof you wont go far wrong with the Thunder Tiger S3, I have run one for 2 years now and it's gone really well for me every time.
