Default Good, cheap, strong 4wd?

Im thinking about getting a 4wd mainly for times like worksop and regionals, etc


But it can't be any old flimsy thing (no schuey's then ), people who know me, know that I give my cars death

So I need something cheap to buy and run, which is going to be strong and still competitive enough.


Was thinking about the new LRP Blast as it has geared diffs, but don't know what the spares will be like or track side-support

Just stick an elastic band round your rear driveshafts to your front wheels on your b4. Proper Shambles

And if you let Chris put your rubber band on you can have the front wheels going in the wrong direction to the rear aswell.....
