xxx vs xxx-cr
What is the difference? There is a xxx on ebay at what looks like a good price, but I don't want to buy anything that is way out of date.

Quite a lot then. The seller claims to be selling as they have upgraded to CR.
Maybe I'll leave it. I was looking at a B4 anyway.

to convert the xxx to cr you need front and rear arms, steering rack, rear shock tower, rear hubs. yes the materials are different but i found the older losi graphite is super strong i have never broken my losi in about one and a half seasons. the rest of the stuff is basically the same. the cr has different outdrives they dont have the D shape in them and losi says that makes the diff last longer. i have the older d rings and i never touched my diff ever since i got my car 1.5 seasons ago and it feels exactly the same as the day it was put together.
as for buying the car or not i personally wouldnt get it because it will cost alot to make it a cr and instead of spending all that money you can probably buy a brand new cr. also i wouldnt get a b4.

£55 for a xxx and part of another car for spares seems to be a bargain to me, but to be honest it's too soon. My wife wouldn't thank me for getting back in to the hobby just yet. Maybe when my son is bit older and I'm taking him.
How much real difference would there be between a xxx and a xxx-cr. Would anyone but a top driver really notice much difference?

the only thing i would suggest getting if you have a xxx is the cr rear shock tower. the extra camber link mounting positions are really good. the VLA arms are not really that neccessary, no other car has it and they perform really well.
