Colin has come up with a world class idear.
An emergency escape offroad life pod.
or
mount a camera on it and drive it ahead on lanes etc to save having to walk the route hence you get to stay in your cab in the warm and dry and it does all the advanced work

OOOOOOOooooo a RR sport.

That will probably be the closest I get to owning one  :cry:

Trying to make an exact copy of my hybrid using the LR 90 radio controlled car.  Only keeping the body though, need to find a car to go underneath.  

Thought about a Vanessa Lunchbox with the Landy top.  Might work!

Things look to have progressed a tad since my old Hilux was state of the art.  Would be nice to get a 109 shell for it!

Yes it runs but i daredn't use it, its the only shell i've got.  I've a spare chassis, axles engine and box(3 speed manual high/low) though.  Where'd you get the shell?  Thats way good, i saw some similar ones at stainby.

That is a beauty, I fancied re shelling the Hilux as a 109. I may have found someone to make a shell for me now so fingers crossed.  I'll have a 1/10 scale 3 speed manual with selectable 4wd and leaf springs :D  :D
