2wd cars are cheaper and easier to maintain. You have two choices of car, either mid or rear motor, however mid motor cars are more popular in the uk as they are suited to high grip surfaces such as carpet, and Astroturf.
You then have to consider if you want one of the following:
Purpose Built Mid Motor
Cougar SV/SV2
Ansmann X2c or Team C TC02C (same car)
Dual mid & rear motor
Losi 22
Durango 210
Rear motor cars that have a conversion kit
Associated B4 (Vega, C4.1)
Kyosho SP2 (Vega)
Tamiya 201 (Vega)
It all depends on your budget/preference. I run the X2c/TC02c, an excellent car in my opinion. Another thing you should consider is what people at your local club run (always good for setup advice and emergency spares).
