Hi.

Excellent toy for sale, jut dont have room to play.

FG ecoline fifth scale rc car.

Will do 60mph, can be modded up to 110. Rear wheel drive. Not for kids, will kill/mame you if it hits you.

Cost about £750 - £800 with mods.
including uprated massive servos, drilled discs behind (front) wheels.
Tune pipe and manifold.
Spark plug (monroe) heatsink with uprated leads.

26cc 2 stroke Zeta strimmer engine as included in original kit. Good for around 3.5 hp. No glow fuel crap, runs on unleaded 95 ron but pulls more bhp on 97.


Each tank lasts approx 40 mins. will get about 30 tanks to a gallon iirc.
Therefore fuel much cheaper than glow fuel.

Pull start.
Built in inductor coil - no glow leads, just pull and go. In about 18 months of ownership, including long periods of non use, it has never taken more than 10 secs to start it. Main reasson why I didnt go for glow powered car again.

Unfortunately, dont have space to store it since moved to a flat and requires big space to use such as supermarket carpark.

Would suit a big kid more than a child.

Body shell is a beautifully painted renault megane rally car.

Impreza shell not available, sorry I tried.

£350 ready to go.

PS if you like modding, can buy, abs, traction control, 2/3 speed gearbox which sound cool, hydraulic brakes, rear disc brakes, k&n cone filter etc. List is endless, and v cool.
