No mate just sign in with your uk user and password, the only thing is most of the listings say "will not ship to gb" but I just asked the question and they agreed to ship so it's well worth takin a look every now and then mate ;)

I got stuffed Ebay style with a rear Tuning cable brake set-up.
Always check that the seller has a Paypal account and that you can pay by same.
I must have found the only Ebayer without a Paypal account - cost me another 20Euros in transfer charges!!
Still cheaper than from Hobbythek, but only just.

Al.

buying the on road my oddified order bits and peices for the on road a total rebuild and new shell wheels tyres gears ect for the bug has cost me over £1500[money for my sandrail or losi] but now ive got 2 cars both running 6+hp oddified engines and can both be run with the mk2 ecu the bugs now got a oddified clutch rebuilt diff new savox th/br servo,and both cars are now spot on perfect in my eyes so money well spent

the on road came with enough tyres and spares to easy start racing in the future if poss plus ive allways needed not wanted but needed a on road and was gutted when i gave up on the merc project but this thing is just mental and still race legal if needs be

next on the list is hydros all round on the bmw
