Hi, in my opinion you would have to pay around 400 GBP as it's one of the rarest...

Good luck!

Looking on Ebay at the moment (not posting link, just do a search.), I think a £400 price tag is very highly unlikely. This is the third kit in the last few months to be advertised, and the most expensive went for $2200 BIN, and was on ebay for a few hours at least. Wonder if this one will be snapped up so quickly too. I'm glad I have mine, and can nicely say it cost more than £400 too.

Gold Edition!

Ouch! £1K for that! And I thought my Turbo Mid was pricey at £300. Mind you if money was no object I would be having that Optima cos they really are as rare as hen's teeth.

I remember about 4 years ago, tower hobbies still had the gold chassis set.  It was marked down to $27.  When I went to order, they had none left.
