The 210 rtr is by far the best option out there in price vs performance at the moment £169 is a steal IMO. It has to be said that the 210 ball diff can be a little troublesome if not built correctly but if I am not mistaken the 210 rtr comes with a pre built geared diff which is ideal for somebody starting out due to reliability and low maintenance.
As has been mentioned earlier you will not feel the benefit of a mid motor car until you have mastered at least the basics of car control and getting around without crashing. The Hobao H2 is also a good option but does not come as a rtr car so will end up costing more to get up and running and to be honest there have been quite a few reliability issues with them. The B4.1 is a reliable car with plentiful spares support but if you wished to upgrade to a mid motor car it would mean the c4.1 conversion kit which is a bit pricey at £170.
I am advising you here with absolutely no bias, I run the Schumacher SV2 I just believe that the 210 rtr is an absolute steal for a beginner, it's cheap, strong and can be easily converted to the mid motor configuration fairly inexpensively with the mid motor conversion kit fr
