Hotbodies D216 can be bought new for £155 from most reputable online model shops, half the regulars at my local track bought themselves one out of curiosity and since then its basically been nothing but hotbodies on the track as they are a really nice driving car (if not a bit softly sprung for high grip carpet track).Parts are easily available should they be needed, but though our testing there is no real problem part other than the idler gear,t you can get an alloy version which eliminates the problem. It is however a kit, so you will need motor/esc/radio etc
If you want second hand, the price of 22 3.0's have dropped significantly since the 4.0 came out, i've seen examples of rolling chassis with significant monies worth of option parts sell for as little as £110. I've had one for over a year, running 10.5 on carpet and never broken it, super tough car even for bashing.
