At about £55, I'd be inclined to agree with you. I had actually contemplated buying it but, after seeing pictures of what you actually get, it just doesn't look worth the money.

At the present time that's $109nz ..that's a heap for so little a parts count ..that's nuts guys no matter how you look at it.
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

No argument here. Cheapest UK price I've seen is about £50 ( approx $100 NZ). Not worth it I reckon. Guess I'll pass on this one!

This started out as a Mercedes small lorry, during the war the rear axle was replaced with a tractor axle (probably with suspension though). The engine was placed further back, hood made longer, cabin placed further back as well. Top speed 80 km/h. Made for off-road towing and transport at reasonably high speeds.

Pity I can't see its connection with ModelCollect but, hey, who knows, maybe they'll release a kit of it. :thumbsup:  ;)

Not often I see a brown car I like.  Or is it green?  It's right on the cusp if you ask me.
