My god! Please let it be the original crazy version from 1988, and not the 2001!!!
Really hope the Hilux or Blazing Blazer is up for a remake as well!!!

My friend who has about 15 Avantes plus hundreds of spares at home won´t be much amused. Thank god i collect the Egress, but if they do it the same as the original, parts from the Egress will still loose worth!

Fingers crossed it's the REAL Avante and not just a 're-release' as they did with the Holiday Buggy ...

I'd better start saving the pennies, I want one of these. In my opinion the best looking RC car ever.

Good for Tamiya
Ive got a few Avante's & Egress' myself but im more than happy for them to re-re it - it was a hell of a bit of engineering in the old days ( even if it was never really any good on the track ) and with rough original examples commanding around a couple of hundred quid these days people should be able to buy a new one for hopefully not that much more... Although i wouldnt be suprised if there would be a few changes - those bloody 'orrible made-of-cheese metal front uprights for one ! They generally lasted as long as it took for you to hit something harder than a large blade of grass... And hopefully the rose joints would be made to tighter tolerances, shock towers beefed up a little etc etc Enough changes to make it reliable as a fun buggy but not to lose too much of the original specification. That would be perfect |

I bet this will sell like crazy whichever version it is.
Personally I'd prefer to see a 2001 esq model that people could actually use without fear! |

I dont know, theres enough interest in them to of sold it either way for similar money, theres a couple on Ebay at the minute over £800 and not even new built. They havent sold however, but pre re re annnouncement it was worth £600 +
The prices got out of hand, we are all bloody mad |

A nice form of revenge for the greedy buggers!
I wonder if it will have a slipper? |
