Lazer zx-5

Hi, can anyone tell me how much is worth paying for a lazer zx-5 roller?

Very much depends on which version and what spec it has on it, there are lots of variations possible!

I've been offered a zx-5 roller was a rtr, but no elec's in now. with a couple of shells and sets of wheels, only been run a dozen times... any idea what it might be worth paying for it?

The RTR has quite a few inferior parts to a standard zx5, like plastic outdrives. Assuming it is good condition i would say it is worth no more than £50 - £60

Thanks that's really helpful, I have had several kyosho's, optima pro, mid turbo, zx-r, zx-rr. But not for ages! Always liked the handling. I can only assume the zx-5 handles pretty well, but it's not got a 1 way for the front wheels I think?? Do most people run it solid 4wd?

To be honest I always found the original zx5 a bit of a handful. If you can stretch your budget to a zx5 sp or even fs I think you would prefer it.

The RTR was a good value car with all the electrics etc but the chassis alone is not worth a great deal as being old hat. However we do have very few of the FS conversions in stock which could make it worth to race with

How much are we talking about and what do you get in the fs conversion?...

See pic,

Its a big upgrade to the latest layout with the motor at the front end.
Its well worth to do.

I guess price will be approx £130.00

I HAVE ONE LEFT ONLY!!!
