I was looking for an Impreza.
I spotted a bargain for 10 euros plus 10 postage- a little-used DeAgostini Build-it-in-stages 1/10 RC model by Spanish company BYCMO.
It probably cost about 400euros in magazine subscriptions to build it!!!
Disappointingly RWD, pokey motor, but it may make a decent thrasher for the kids.... The body is not bad at all. It was delivered in disguise as a Mummified Subaru Impreza!
As I was now on fire with my purchase, awaiting delivery, I set about looking at other better known' Impreza models for comparison (((dangerous))), and of course the 57717 RTR car appeared on a local page, 60euros running with controller, and tool/grease bag unopened, located tidily between work and my home..... I picked it up the same evening during the drive home!
So here they are; the Bycmo RWD in mummified form, and in comparison with the Tamiya 57717
