53HRA Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 We proudly reveal the X5 Rally, built on the new proven 5 series MCD 4WD chassis. The X5 carries the same finest accessories & parts with the super-sport XS-5 such as the rear diffuser, front bumper and the side guards. In addition to those parts the X5 has a unique rear wing, top air intake, side mirros, top antennas and a super rigid roll-cage designed particularly for the X5 body which increases the robustness of the car! Full specification to follow. Source: MCD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCbutcher Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) It's a rally car lol. Ide like the rear shocks to have more presence atleast. But they look like road shocks. Even then look small. An extra inch mayb. But the car still looks amazing truly modern and I'm glad they've ditched the old cage that looked ugly. I love the bumpers wing and cage on this. But if it could drive well on grass that would finish it off tremendously mayb it can be set up to ride a little higher tho.

Rover Man Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 With only 10mm or so ground clearance its only going to work on fairly flat terrain. Its looks great but as its based on the RR5 it will be fragile and expensive to fix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evssv Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 That looks bad ass! !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Are there any proper scale bodies which fit? Delta, Focus, Essie 1 or 2? Some generic blob with stripy paint is more in keeping with a £150 Traxxas than a £1,000 MCD. Can the exhaust be made to pass through the imitation ones at the back - that would be nice!! Al.

HomerSimpson Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) Its probably the best looking 5th scale out there... Looks amazing! I'd buy one just to look at on the shelf....... Edited December 9, 2015 by HomerSimpson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCbutcher Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 There's some xsara bodies on the chassis before this, I might have seen a scooby too. I remeber a black mcd xsara for sale on here with monster stickers. It looked really nice. But this looks much better. It's time proline started making some 1/5 bodies there's afew rcs for them now. Is this far off in size compared to the older version and 5 mini wrc. Fgs ect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Defo needs some WRC body options or its just 'another toy', albeit a very good and very expensive one. Sorry, we're all entitled to opinions, that's mine. Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mond Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Looks like competition for the FG Mini. But will it be allowed to race in that league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
