Hot Bodies Racing D418 4wd 1/10 buggy

I have noticed that for a short while they have reduced the price of the 2WD D216 version to £155, Which in this day and age is a good price for a nice looking buggy

I don’t know if that was just ModelSPort though. And they were sold out when last I looked. I couldn’t find them for sale else where in the UK either.

And I wonder if it was stock clearance. Wasn’t Hot Bodies previously an Hpi brand and now they aren’t or something.

MB Models still have one as well.

Hot bodies racing was created and sold by hpi racing, but....

When hpi racing went into administration, hpi where purchased by ripmax without the hot bodies section of the company

So neidhart sa (swiss, maker of team orion electronics) bought hot bodies and called it HB racing, basically because they have deep pockets ( neidhart sa is owned by kyosho corp) and they had ifmar winners working for them.....they let the ex racers in the company design and run HB racing, hence why they now primarily focus on pro scale race rigs
