CHEAP BUGGY
What do you consider cheap? You will get what you pay for so If you try to buy something for nothing thats what you will get. If you are looking for a used r/c car, you will be buying something you know nothing about and will be buying someone elses problems. Your best bet is to get one new in the box, you will know what to expect, if you want cheap go to radio shack.

Thanks
I was thinking about the $350 price range and am hoping for some kind of fraud protection. Thanks a lot for your advice. Keep updating me if you dont mind.

cheap buggys
I usually wouldnt recommend an ofna buggy to anyone but it sound like what your looking for, a cheap new buggy with the radio and rtr. The new Ultra gt pro is maybe one you should look at because it is alot better than the previous gtlx. It has the front kickup chassis, better shocks and the .25 engine but the gears and diffs are weak made out of cheap materials. Another way to go is look for a used 7.5 or Mugen mbx, their quality is WAY better but will probably cost a little more but well worth it. There are used buggys here and also on ebay. Good luck.

I've got a Kyosho MP6 Int and a Hyper 7
Kyosho MP6 international, good shape, Picco engine (non pull strt) has very high compression not 20 tanks through it, hi-torq servos (not expensive ones) super fast, tuned for racing, xtra set of rims and tiires almost new, RB concepts pipe with small dent. complete with starter box (not a fancy one but it works) and brand new airtronics radio (basic but good) everything works.will take $325.00
The OFNA Hyper 7 is like new, about 8 tanks through it (really!) Pull start completely stock with radio and fuel bottle. in the box!
$325.00
if you are interested let me know and I will post some pics when I can. Otherwise they are going to Ebay and you can bid on them there.
thanks, Scott
PS: I'm getting back into electric planes

Hi, the Mp6 buggy itself has 2 seasons (more like 1.5) of racing on it, I never bashed it around the neiborhood (which is harder on a buggy than racing) The motor itself really has very limited time on it. Nothing is bent or broken, it's very durable. Sealed diffs (no leaks) The second I get my digicam back I will post pics, hang tight. (eh, maybe I'll just go buy a new digicam... 
)
