OT: Nitro Buggy Acme Condor 1/10

Like this:
http://www.nitrotek.co.uk/condor-self-build-nitro-rc-buggy-kit.html

Complete with all radio gear, nitro fuel and every single thing you need to run it.

Has an Infinity 0.18 nitro engine, disc brakes, oil-filled shocks, 4wd etc etc.

Bought last Xmas and built from a kit (carefully, using threadlock).

Upgraded with blue alloy anodised shocks and a decent glowplug starter (one with kit is not good), as well as failsafe.

Good condition and goes like stink.

Engine needs a knack to start - warm it first with hairdryer and then it starts fine. Probably just needs setting up. Once started it's stupid fast - you need a lot of space to run it.

Also two steering arms have been repaired (work fine now). I have the new parts to fix, just haven't got around to fitting them.

Cost £130 plus upgrades (about £50 in total), so £60 ovno seems fair.

Has to go as another one coming (she's going to kill me...)

Based in Notts, work in Lincs.

If it's a ABC type engine and it hasn't been run much it's not unusual to have to heat up the engine first, when it's run in it should be easier to start (ABC engines have differential expansion of the piston and liner so have quite a lot of "nip" when cold and new).
