No Cheese Tonight 8 Posted April 28, 2020 Can't find any current sellers of aluminium Rough Rider/Buggy Champ chassis in the UK - does anyone have one to sell or know where I can get one? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuijo 867 Posted April 29, 2020 I don't think anyone is selling them in the UK as far as I can tell. I just bought 2 of these last Saturday, and they arrived yesterday despite the delivery estimate of June/July. So postage was a bit pricey, but very quick from South Korea. They are serious slabs of metal, and after fitting the first one last night I'm very happy with it. Looking forward to fitting the other one later on today. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vintage-tamiya-sand-scorcher-rought-rider-super-champ-alloy-chassis-3T/332547938863?hash=item4d6d66da2f:g:n1MAAOxyjK1RBSnv 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Fuijo, I was hovering over the Buy button of those yesterday, that seller has also got some great wheels but then the postage wouldn't combine and thought with a bit of extra customs charge on top price was getting well out of hand!

No worries. I didn't get hit for import duty because the value was below what they start charging for. Might be worth checking what it is in the UK so you can stay below it. I can't remember what it is, I've been awol from the UK for a while now. Twinset's one looks pretty sturdy, and has the bits on the sides that will protect the radio box a bit better.
