Metla, I think you are being a bit hard on the car.
What exactly did you expect? If you wanted a full race spec Tamiya you should have bought the TRF501X.
Yes, the points you mention about the screws and diff instruction are true. However if you have 20 years experience of building cars I thought you would have realised that the phillips head screws would not last in the hard plastic, and that you had made a mistake with the diff screw. I know I made the same mistake but realised it as soon as I finished the diffs. And I bought some hex head screws before even attempting the build.
At the end of the day the Durga is a basic car. But it is a basic car that handles very well. That is what it is all about in my opinion.
