Default What donor car is best

I am wondering which car is best to use as the donor car for the X5 conversion as I am thinking of changing my 4wd ride and I already have the X6 which has to be the best car I have ever drivern and can't wait for the new gearbox and shocktower which can only make this great car even better.

Many thanks in advance

And if you want to go for a new one Bolton Model Mart have offered the XX-4 WE for £150. Only a couple left.

To build to the highest spec the easiest then defo XX4 We is the way to go. There is indeed a perfect looking doner car on the for sale section right now, though saying that £150 is hard to refuse for a new one!!! Why so cheap?

hey there - the only reason they are so cheap is that 1/10th electric is a very minor part of the whole picture for us - we are much more involved in 1/8th rallycross and truggies.

Over the summer a group of 1/8th buggy guys expressed an interesest in 1/10th - these XX4 WE`s are basically what I have left from that lat.

Rather than sit and wait for them to go - very unlikely as we dont see many 1/10th guys I figured I would stock them on here and hope someone fancies them.
