I have the nosecone in hand! Going to try and have a play with this next week. I have a plan for the body, will see how it works out!

Thanks, I just found your post actually! Have ordered a nosecone and now have a plan!

Managed to find an original monster beetle at a bootsale last weekend. I was going to sell on, but always wanted one so figured I would give it a bit of a restoration. Are the body parts on the reissue the same as original? I need a nosecone, so hoping so! Will get a pic up shortly!

Dug my old m-03 out the other day, it always seemed fast but we are talking maybe 12 turn motor, a decent esc and 7.2, going back a few years. Was thinking what to do with it, heres an idea! It not the prettiest.

Just listed this on sunday, its unbuilt and all boxed, uncut shell. Happy to knock a fair bit off for anyone on here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tamiya-M01-58163...=item256bbceb63

Not sure what value to place on this. any tips? Its in pretty good nick looking over it, some light damage to the bodyshell around the edges, little bits chipped off. There is no damage to the chassis, it looks like its been used only very lightly. I have not tried to start it, so no idea on running condition. There is a pair of servos and a reciever in the electrics box.

everything in this picture, other than the Beatties bag for £45 or I will split it if you want bits. postage extra, or collection from me in welwyn garden city in herts is fine

replied. Anyone interested in the Brat before it goes on ebay? PLASTICS SOLD, rest on ebay this weekend.

Selling some of my collection, starting with this, its a rerelease Brat, I built it and run it on the playing field a couple times, so no damage on it. The shell is ok, stickers are a bit badly done in places but not awful, looks nice as a runner! Its the lexan shell. Car comes as pictured, with the steering servo and a motor, that was new when fitted so only run about 10mins total. The box is there, and I do have the manual so thats included too. Would like £55 posted for this. Also have a sticker sheet for the hard body Brat shell - £5posted And the driver plastics, rollbar, front bumper, screens SOLD I am in welwyn garden city in hertfordshire and collection is fine on these bits too.

How much for a beatties bag, and for the mini wheels?

oh dear, i seem to have killed the thread lol

are you closing the shop in stevenage then? I'll be gutted by that

My 3, the yellow one is a standard m03, just sits on the shelf. The copper one is a 4x4 ABC chassis, running a 9turn, currently needing some parts after hitting a dropped kerb at full chat . Orange and black one is the tramp lol, my main runner car, I had a tt-01 for a while and spent loads on it, then realised I prefered the mini! Its a m03 r (the one that comes with all the blue bits) but has various plastics replacing some of the alloy, as I found it needs some flex, has carbon gear spindles, ballraced, mantaray ball diff, 11 turn motor, carbon quick release battery kit, and a few other bits. Its much more battered now lol,l and has new wheels as the chrome ones finally started splitting. Goes thru tyres a bit too lol.

Going to have to start clearing some of my cars, its getting a bit out of control. First up is a Chrome Midnight Pumpkin, its built up, but never run, has no electrics included. It comes with the box. After 40 for it. Secondly I have a runner Midnight Pumpkin, its a older one, not sure how old. I bought it secondhand and used it a few times, it is in used condition but isn't smashed up, the shell is in pretty good nick. No electrics with this one either, used them in other cars. After 35 for this one. I am in Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire.

m03 gets my vote, i had a tt01, spend loads on it and really disliked it to drive, no fun imho. thats only my opinions, couple mates i run with love their ones. i totally love my m03 thou, bags of fun to drive and takes loads of stick. its got a 15turn and a quality esc in and is a hoot!
