Any ideas

[purpletimbo]

I'll list this here, as no one seems to know what it is, hoping someone might recognise it
I reckon it's based on a 2WD 1/8 buggy, as its 300mm wide 600mm long.
About 10 years old apparently, and may have been owned by a Russell Draper who raced rally cross in 2002?
A long shot, but his names on shell,any ideas gratefully accepted.
Also apparently a nova rossi 3.5 but definitely an on board glow and starter system called Dynamic

A friend of mine once had a 1/8th buggy with the same purple chassis colour, would also match that age. It was made by Prafa, so maybe it´s done by them, too.
Just looked for them, seems like they aren´t around any more.

My guess is its a mantua. My dad has a mantua 1/8 buggy but needs an engine for it if anyone can help.

Update, a modelshop in Germany informs me it's a Robbe 1/7 on road nitro.
Still no wiser than that though
