With the team version you would probably find yourself buying some of the FT upgrades which would most likely end up costing you alot more than the extra £35 for all the upgrades the FT car has.
Hope this helps

thanks for that... the reason i ask is because i can only get about £200 for my touring car stuff... and i need to get a rolling chassis, few spares and wheels and tires for this.
what spares does the B4 FT need?
list the mian ones... because the less spares i buy the more chance of me getting a B4 FT it is.
because a b4 ft is £159.99 then i need springs,spares, wheels and tires and it comes to over £200
where as the rb5 i can just make £200 because the RB5 is £150
and the B4 TEAM is £124.99 and i get get spares springs and wheels and tires for about £200
i need some serious help LOL... its reli hard to choose... although i could get a second hand B4 FT... but tbh i would'nt mind a knew one...
but if i could get a B4 FT in perfect condition with spares then i would be well away!
thanks jordan
