Depends on what you want to spend. Going new means you know what you your getting but ultimatly costs more.

If I were buying one I'd be looking for a Kyosho or Associated. Schumacher and Durango are good but seem to be need a bit more maintenance from what I know about or hear.

On a side note if might be worth checking what cars your current wheels and batteries will fit into so you don't have to double up on too many things.

Default Buggy bug

That's good news Nathan,I just fitted big bore shocks and a bulldog shell to my b44.1 so it is now a b44.1.5, amazingly I raced it at kirkley on Sunday and matched the 21 laps I done with my touring car that won me the qualifying rounds, it Also survived 2 full speed cartwheels into the brick wall unscathed, I just hope it goes as well at NBC. I think you will be happy, I would say the b44 and durango dex410 are the best buggys out.
