      Just wanted to say hello, and welcome myself to the forum 🙂

      Went to Kmart yesterday and couldn’t resist getting a BCG (S2000).
      I’ve been meaning to get one for ages. They are fun fun fun.

      Now I guess I’ll have to get hooked and order one of those ‘go faster’ models from somewhere.

      Are there any decent mini RC Peugeots (or Renaults, or errkk… even Citroens)?

      Yeah that 206 look pretty nice.
      I just found some Mini Z 206 shells. Maybe I’ll get one of them.

      Here’s one.

      Hi Kerosene,
      Unfortunately there’s no little French things, the 206 WRC clone that people are alluding too is the most dodgey thing around. I would avoid this at all costs.

      BTW, I would assume that you’ve got a Fench 1:1 car thing…

      Would you like to buy a nice used 1:1 Renault Clio Sport 😉

      Aaron – yeah you assumption is correct – 306.

      I’ll have to check out those MiniZs, cause I just can’t handle driving a micro Honda knowing that there’s some Pugs out there.

      Those 1:1 Clios are pretty cool. I drove an Clio Expression(?) for a few days on a Tassie holiday recently. Much fun.

      And the Peugeot you’re looking for is a 206…..

      I’ve got one, love the body, hated the chassis (Bensu). I installed an REM, springs and tyres, now it steers great ! It’s definately worth the price of admission. Now that you’ve been to the Biggest Micro RC webpage in the world, you are officially Hooked

      Hobbico in Sydney have clone Minis for $12.95. They came in silver, red and blue. Don’t know if the shell will fit a tomy chassis though.

      I’ve got a 206 Never had a problem till it became my mod test car (if it survived the mod I’d consider it on my proper charg) but they have no clear windscreen which bugged me (till I dremeled it, which I will never do again.)
