Stilli Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 A friend of mine is a complete newbie to RC cars and is looking for a first e car for bashing with a view to moving into racing later if he gets the bug. He has asked my opinion on this HPI Vorza that's for sale on eBay but I am unsure of what to advise him. Any comments/advice would be appreciated.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/hpi-vorza-flux-/151636235824?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item234e395630 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I wouldn't recommend any newb buying second hand, potential minefield of issues and no warranty. The buggy linked runs a 4s max can with a 6s capable ESC....that puts me off immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuttyProfessor Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 But it looks like its run 4s max by the lipo's listed I agree with Noj though, being second hand,could have knackered diffs, bent pins etc especially if its been bashed hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post smeghead28 Posted April 6, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Also the condition would put me off a bit. If people cant be bothered to clean what they are trying to sell I would walk away unless it was very cheap.

jpbp200 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Also the condition would put me off a bit.If people cant be bothered to clean what they are trying to sell I would walk away unless it was very cheap.Definitely agree with the above. Also the negative feedback comments would make it a no go for me. A domestic seller with anything less than 100% is slightly suspect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuttyProfessor Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Well yeah, most of the positive feedback is him/her buying stuff, the negatives are him/her selling stuff. No items received and no refund............steer clear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
