    Tamiya Terra Crusher

    What are these like, I have the chance of a second hand one and it looks quite good. Not really being into my RC cars though I don't know what it's like compared to the competition.

    Anyone care to shed any light on it?

    What do you reckon would be a good price on one with a barely run in engine and about 2 tanks of fuel gone through it, the whole lot?

    i have'nt had a big look around at prices cos im not in a position to buy one yet, but they seem to be between £440 and £500 new. bearing in mind you dont get a warranty on one second hand id be trying to get one for £300 or so if it was in good nick.

    Well I just bought the Terra Crusher, he's gonna set the engine up for me and put in a Gallon of fuel aswell

    Paid £100 and gave him 2 Rover SD1 heads for it in the end, apart from a few scratches on the bottom it is spotless

    I'm a happy man
