How much money is that in Us currency? Once i know that, maybe i can reccommend something in that price range. I race nitro radio controlled vehicles. Lots of fun.

its about $200 i think, its around $2 to the £1 at the moment AFAIK.

However things are generally more expensive here in the UK, so the dollar to the pound ratio isnt much to go by, but gives you an idea i suppose.

actually I've just been on towerhobbies and the HPI micro is $200, and it is about £100 over here

I've got a Nissan skyline one.Bought it 2 years ago havn';t used it in the last year because it broke.I bought the parts needed to fix it but my brother hasn't been botherd to do it(because i don't know jack!).It goes 20MPH and cost £260.00 from model junction.

more info needed - what do you want to do with it?

I had 3... a road car - and buggy and a monster truck - sold the road car and only have the buggy and truck now.

for trucks you cant really go wrong with HPI... loads hardier than Traxxas
Buggys Hyper7s 2nd hand should be around that sort of figure...

If your looking for new, you wont be able to get anything thats good...

I don't mind used at all, and it will probably be used for fun/in the park

I've got a Kyosho Ford Focus WRC that's been gathering dust for a year or so now if you want it. The suspension's broken at the moment, but I can easily fix it. It's a great speedy little car and cost me £180 a few years ago.
