Hey man,
Thanks for the input! I picked one up 2nd hand in the end for £17. Still finding bits and pieces to get it roadworthy, so I'm glad someone else has had good experiences with it. Its certainly a very neat looking chassis, shame its been discontinued...though I'm told by Ansmann there's a brand new chassis due out soon, if not already! This was a while ago
I know there is a lot of concern surrounding the noisy gears, but to be honest, my Tamiya TL01 is pretty loud anyway. Be interesting to see what the difference is!
In the mean time I'll get the neccessary screw kits I need and finish this beast off
