hi ,i have seen it on ebay,i might bid on it if my misses stops hovering around me,she will have a fit if i get another one lol,i got two last month,is the car worth what he wants and will the spares dry up ,or should i get an evo4, they doesn't seem much different between them??...........Phil

There is a massive difference between the 2 mate.

hi ,i looked at the r4 and wasnt that convinced that it was worth the difference between that and the upgraded evo 3 ,as i have already have another one i thought the parts would come in handy ,whats your opinion mike of the two models ?..........phil
 
Think on that this is from a racers point of veiw, the new mcd looks and performs better than the old one and from the people I've talked to who own them, they're of the same opinion but the FTX punisher is nearly twice the car for half the money.

Agree the Punisher is a great car for the money, but I was told by Bob (KCR) last week that the CML sponsored drivers in this years championship are driving a Punisher that is not available in the shops whereas the MCD's racing are the same as those on the shop shelf.
 
Thats not true by a long way. FTX/Nutec part and cars are available from Nige at freeprawn and the cml guys are running standard cars. One of the options is to buy the MT (sorry not sure of the name) as a roller, the body of the buggy and this will give you a wider car so you can use the zero ofset rims like most of the 2wd cars.
 
Is this back on ebay?

when i got my ftx i was very impressed with it ,the build quality and the way its designed and only £500 i had to spend £350 to get it to work better ,but my battered old evo 2 just handles like a dream and haven't spent anything on it, its reliable and has never let me down unlike both my fg marders and c5, its a very solid car.................Phil
 
Was it a bit of free publicity?

This is one weird thread I must admit!!

Al.

the whole thing is a bit strange ,the bloke i got it from said he has has two buyers and both let him down , i think Darcy must of done a deal and posted it on here and it then fell through , unless everybody has bought it and no one has it lol ,that would be just my luck ..................phil
 
Well, my fingers are crossed. Hope you get your new ride. I wondered WTF was going on with this thread and Darcy never came back to say it fell through or it was a scam or what not.
Thanks;)
 
What can I say.

Post a few pictures, and not of it on a pathway in the garden !! :D:D:D:D:D
... when it comes.

Al.

lol:lol: the bloke i got it from emailed me today saying its to heavy to post so having to send by courier and should be here wed/Thu , my last mcd had to be sent that way but i suppose the car and spares will weigh a bit ..........Phil
 
Sorry not to have replied to this one folks but here goes:

The day I was picking this beauty up my grandfather fell and hit his head and unfortunately died!

Due to the fact that all his assets were in probate my nan could not afford the funeral cost so I lent her all I could to pay for the cost.

So, unfortunately I did not buy this one in the end!! Real shame but family comes first!!

Hopefully some time soon I'll be able to get another?

Cheers guys

Adam

Very jealous!!! :-)

hi mate

its not been exactly plain sailing ,it never is. the original head had a hair line crack ,so i wanted to get the same head and just replace.but i couldn't wait for delivery.so i drove 200 miles today to get a 29cc head from rossmods and maid sure the squish gap was right,and hay presto:lol:it runs very well,I've only run two tanks through it gently .but the response is amazing .i can't wait to thrash it,iam going to rebuild my evo 2 to a 3 with all the spares when i get time. ..........Phil
