Recommend me a 1/10 Electric buggy

[MrDan]

Hi All

we all know its impossible for a grown man to look cool whilst operating a radio controlled car.. but that's beside the point :-)

Im currently in the process of selling my Hyper 7 nitro set up which I have had for about 5 years, Its been great and I mostly use it for "Bashing" when I take the dog out etc. but its become a bit of a faff with all the gubbins you need for nitro.

The last time i looked at electric 2400mah NiMh was the height of technology... it seems things have moved on allot!

anyway im looking for a 1/10 buggy / truggy to replace it, I was planning on spending about £300 and was hoping to get 2 or 3 batteries with it for that.

It seems im spoilt for choice with everyone offering brushless motors, LiPo and ESCs for sub £200.

any recommendations ? I dont mind 2WD im just going for low maintenance fun.
