WTF, this thread is madness.

If dealers are currently giving some good deals on kits how on god's earth can that be a bad thing?

Anyone who thinks the team should not be develping new and improved parts with intention to bring them to market (either as a rolling change in the kit or marketed as a 'new' kit) needs to take a reality check.

leeboy44 14-06-2011 08:55 PM
every car will have upgrades in its life at some point, like the big bores etc i bet if/when they do bring out whatever it will be all interchangeable with the durango as we know it now anyway

Dazzler 14-06-2011 08:56 PM
I recon you have underestimated how good the deal is Stu.... £199 for a 410R, or £299 for a full fat 2010 spec... It's a fantastic car at that price... You can almost buy both for the original cost of a full fat car, and have all the spares you need... And it's still every bit as good now as it was before the reduction..

If I was after a car now, I'd be snapping one up quick, not worrying about what may or may not be coming. I doubt these prices will be around long!

traffman 14-06-2011 08:58 PM
Hmmmm keep it coming im enjoying this.....wheres me popcorn.

So whats the script then ? Captain slip up got a gagging order against him?

I bought one of each, should see me through the winter. Cant complain about the durango at all, better than the b44 in so many ways. Had a quick go of a Cat, handled well, but I dont enjoy ball diffs, two winters of touring cars has increased my dislike of them, constantly having to maintain them. Durango comes out of the hauler every friday night, gets driven hard, goes back in the box till the next friday, not broken it yet.

He PM'd me after my previous post, so I'm assuming that he can't post here any more?

Nigel 14-06-2011 10:10 PM

I think you need to go and give your head a shake!
this is the very reason (Apparently!) why Phil has been restricted! Whats the need.

As Adam said... If a forum used by all ages!

So why don't you go ahead and edit your post.

coleman758 14-06-2011 10:15 PM
Sorry to say fell... But someone has seen you coming!

The 410R is RRP of about £260 and thats on the Durango site. I think the are £230 in JEspares.

I have just sold one for £180 and there is one in the FS section for £185.

Benh 14-06-2011 10:24 PM

Durango are a professional company who try to do right by their customers, as confirmed by numerous people on here.

Even though most of what captainlip says is in gest, people who don't know him may take his comments seriously. Forums are great but its often hard to tell if someone is been serious or joking.

Also as Adam pointed out, minors use this forum so swearing is most definately inappropriate. This is not a case of Durango flexing their money, more a case of been responsible.
I agree with your points, I would do the same in their position....its just that his over the top posts were fun to read.

Not being funny dude, but it's the Law of Sod, as soon as you buy something you've been waiting for, it'll be cheaper a few weeks later, or a better one comes out for the same money.

Happens just about every time I buy a new TV, a bloke at work bought a new Audi TT, then within weeks, the face lift model was released, better engine, less co2, more mpg, more toys etc, the dealer never told him about that when he took his 25-30k from him.

If there is a new DEX coming, I'll see what new bits it has, then put the ones I want on my 2009 car, just like I did when the 2010 car came out.

no suprise here. however i question this forums character, banning a member for letting the cat out of the bag on a company that has no (realized) ties. i'm hoping there was something else going on, otherwise that is a shame.

maybe he deserved it for his past stupidity, i don't know.
You have misread the situation entirely. Thankfully because of hard working maniacs you don't have to trawl through heaps of offensive posts so you might not realise why people might not be able to post.

hi,

i've just see this tread..

I'm french (so more bad english sorry)
2 weeks ago I ran on the French championship in Pau (warm up for the Euro to..) and in the stand there is Neil martin and Hupo Hoenigl ..and Team Durango French drivers Baldini cyrille (French champion 2011..) and Gilles Bennardo...(and others..)
No One use V3 or other but Dex 410 with big bore and...no more ..arf yes very good fingers..:)

Nigel 15-06-2011 08:32 PM
hmm maybe if the V3 is real, maybe its just an update with included big bores.

I'm with you on this one. Just like they done with 2010 spec car updated drive shafts etc. Maybe the new shell, shocks,gearbox alloy holders, D blocks. We will see as johnm said will upgrade mine when it does happen.

andys 15-06-2011 09:46 PM
Basically it's a great deal for a lot of car for the cash.

I ran an 'R' and have had little or no problems with it. I wanted the rollbars / alloy bits etc but they are so expensive on their own.

Decided to buy the 2010 full fat kit from MB Models as they are such good value. I might upgrade the odd part if anything new comes out, keep my old 'R' as spares.

High roller, right thurrr ladies and gents. :rolleyes:

MikePimlott 15-06-2011 10:19 PM
To be fair we knew this was coming when durango did mates rates in december or whenever it was. Get rid of the old kits before they release the updated kit.

Be thankfull you get everything you need in the one box from durango.

fifi 16-06-2011 04:32 AM
V3 will be the 2011 world edition...?

Not sure what that means Andy - but I assume you are being cheeky !
At least you know i'll have plenty of spares now :)

Big G 16-06-2011 12:21 PM
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the 'forward cab' new shell design after Jimmy's Talyrain report :D

tbh I'd seen it a while ago, but didn't want to say anything just in case it wasn't suppose to be broadcast hehe

You only have to keep an eye on the team's cars to see what's likely to be coming along next ;)

Aye been way too busy talking about everthing else durango related! :D

Yep I've had a peek & similar in looks to the 408 shell, looks good imo :thumbsup:

Big G 16-06-2011 02:10 PM

Talyrain....< I like what you did there LOL

snook 16-06-2011 04:51 PM
So, wildly guessing theres gona be...

- a new body, with more room around the spur gear
- double joins for the center driveshafts to reduce wear
- a bit of bling for the rear gearboxholder
- bigger shocks
- "diffrent" ball cups

for the 2011 kit... have i forgotten anything?

all of wich can be seen in the talywain report and esspecially in this pic

Whiskers 21-06-2011 06:24 PM
MB Models are now offering a 2010 kit complete with big bores as an extra for £359!

I mean your link MB sorry about that, In leeds

dpackster1980 22-06-2011 09:32 PM
I suspect the price drop is to persuade people from buying the SX3??

This would make sense why Durango are dropping the price and are offering deals which includes the big bore shocks. You require no expensive extras with the 410 just orings for the diffs and ball cups. :thumbsup:

Diver 02-07-2011 09:58 PM
buy now or wait???
 
Hi I am thinking of buying a 410 and the price is nice now but is it better to wait and buy the v3 or buy now???

Are there problems with the 410 that I can buy now for this nice price??

Hope to here from you

Greets Ronald

Kurtje 03-07-2011 06:30 AM
Hi Ronald

Maybe it's easier if you contact me on the MBF forum :D

No if you like the 410 just buy it, build it right and you'll have a lot of fun with it!
It's the best 4wd buggy i've driven!!!

AfroP 03-07-2011 09:50 AM
Also there is no V3 of the Dex410/r
nothing has even been spotted at events.
