I wish I've just been robbed by the tax man. I'm PAYE, they insist on a tax return and I owed them several hundreds pounds... They said a coding issue, yet they are the idiots who issue the codings.

I can't get off self assesment, yet am PAYE for a large company - w@nkers

The tax man has cost me a Cougar SV easily :cry:

As for mid motored I'm watchingit as it's been designed from the ground up

i would have said the obvious to me is you can mount the shocks lower and have a lower shock tower

Interesting looking car, nice to see another challenger out there ... much better than when it was a choice of just 2 cars. Now 5 (official cars in the UK that is) straight out of the box and 2 well designed conversions, split rear / mid motored, 1/10th 2wd has never had it so good!!

Looking forward to seeing how this car goes world wide but it should be quick in the UK / Europe. Not enough to tempt me from the RB5 though.

One question ... how have they made the 2wd shell look nice when the SX shell is so odd looking? Are there 2 people designing shells at Schumacher?

I actually think it looks quite similar to the Cat SX shell and that by the nature of the chassis it doesn't taper away at the back and therefore looks 'better'

the cockpit shape looks very similar to the SX

beauty is in eye of beholder, plus who cares if its awesome

bigred5765 27-01-2010 12:35 PM

i like both shells, there a lot nicer then some of the bloated shells out there,

DCM 27-01-2010 12:45 PM

The SV shell is more 'angular' than the SX, not a great fan of the SX, but it also depends on how you spray it!

Im not a schumacher fan,but this does look quite nice.my question is...why would it be priced as high as an X6 kit and B4 together?.surely it would be about the same price as a B4 on its own as its one kit??????:confused:

burgie 27-01-2010 02:22 PM

has the price been announced anywhere yet?

jono83 27-01-2010 02:32 PM

£250+ is expected but nothing official yet but we are waiting to be pleasantly surprised

Just my reply to the 8 or 9 people that have said a figure of about £299 in the previous threads...OR am i not allowed to comment...:confused:

mikeyscott 27-01-2010 03:15 PM

I think we all just need to wait and see what the price comes out at and then decide what you want to do.

A shop owner had stated that he had been told £299 from Schumacher (tentative), as I thought... bugger

If that is the case I'll be running what I have for the moment and seeing how I go.

DCM 27-01-2010 05:53 PM

But I will wait and see what the RRP is, and what the street price actually is!
