Hi guy`s can i have some help with getting a new buggy?
ON here or other forums there are these buggy`s for sale
The Caster zx-1
Maverick Stealth XB
HPI Trophy
Nanda NRB3
they are all the rtr`s and all selling for about the same money?
was just going to stick to lecky for the outdoor season but am already bored.
So am looking for something cheap just to run.
i know i would be better off getting a pro but just cant afford it.
Any help with this would be great
Thanks Guys
Jamie

Cant go wrong with HPI, plenty of parts available and lots of customer support.

Are you looking for new or second hand, there are some bargins to be had second hand as lots of racers upgrade every year. Hobao Hypers are worth considering, cheap spares, readily available. Hyper 7s are a good club buggy (run one myself) then theres the 8, 8.5 and the top one the 9. They are quite strong (give mine a right bashing and still going well) and lots have had them so should be able to get plenty of setup advice. Hope that helps

Also if you want to stretch your budget keep an eye our for the Hong Nor X1-CR's, ive raced mine for a while and never broke it. Very good buggy, they should be a bit cheaper because the X2 just came out.

Sounds good I would insist on seeing it running and find out how old the engine is before parting with any cash. Hope its all good for you
