Probably because there's so many about, you see a few more for sale. Also the V2 will be coming out February so people might be clearing them ready for that realease, not that it will be hugely different and you may even to put the parts on the V1. MB Models seem to be doing them cheapest at £95 for a new kit so not much point in buying a used one.

£159 new for a 210 kit at MB

Still one of the cheapest on the market though and a decent competitive car

The 410V4 is only 4-6 weeks out from release now so no doubt people making way for that but again it's not likely to be a massive change and many parts may well switch over.

Ah right.. I hoped as much it was due to a new release rather than probs with the car... Anybody care to share experiences above what has already been offered..?

I really like my B4 but no harm in trying others I guess.. Is the configuration changeover for motor etc an easy job..? I.e. Can it be done trackside..?

I just started racing (on astro) this year.
My first car was a B4 and started in the rookieclass. It went ok.
Then I bought a Dex 210 and was instantly 2 seconds faster. I find it easier to drive. ( I drive in midmotor configuration)
I don't mind that an updated car is coming, it still is a good car.

I had a DEX210 for a while and was struggling to make the A final in a 2 final club night of 10-12 racers... Bought a C4.1 and instantly I was dropping in TQ's purely from changing the car.
