Default are we still in a recession?

don't see why someone hasn't bidded on this, seems a reasonable starting price, the chassis is worth it plus the coilovers are a few pennies, ideal if its the BEC route your heading.
or am i missing something????

That 'might' (read probably) not be a Haynes. In fact, there is very little info at all about the chassis, except it is 'Locost'.

I hadn't spotted that one.

Might be worth a punt at that starting price

If it stays at that price, i would get it just to hang in my garage until I get enough stuff together to make another one - I am pretty close to that now!

Fair points, I have never really paid much attention to the RC book. £250 my ar5e

In fact, if people look at the Diff plates they appear to be identical to the Haynes.

Anyway, too far away for me
