I Read that Lee Martin was thinking Tamiya should of waiting a little longer to finished the Development of the XR/XM kit before releasing it.
But looks to be an expensive April coming up!!

Thou what to do with the 502 and old 201XM as they dont sell second hand very well.
Why is everyone so enthusiastic about a gear diff? Sure it is nice, and I know I never got my TRF201 ball diff to run that smooth, but a gear diff quite limits the diversity of surfaces this car can perform on at it's peak?

Anyway, D-Style, I think the second hand price of the XM probably much depends on it's ability to sell. A very limited amount of people are prepared to spend even nearly as much as you did to get that spec, and with an actual (and updated) kit coming soon the second hand value unfortunately becomes an even bigger question mark...
