The time has come to sell my HPI Baja 5b SS. It has not had much use for the last few years but has just had a full strip down and service so in perfect working order. Lots of upgrades as listed. A lot from American firms such as Hostile Racing, Turtle Racing and DDM, not cheap knockoffs! It’s been a hard decision to sell but my young son is getting into the hobby and we want to get something smaller and electric that he can use!
Looking for £600 OVNO for everything, but open to sensible offers!! Buyer to pay any fees, collection only (based in Cambridge), but may be able to meet partway with someone?? Contact me to discuss.
Details as follows:

***There is over £500 over wheels, foams, tyres and bead locks with this Baja covering all types of driving surfaces***
Spare custom painted “flame” bodyshell

This is a great buggy, original HPI with an extensive selection of upgrades and spares. I would estimate there to be over £2500 worth of kit here. This car has not been used extensively, never abused and well looked after. Half the fun for me was wrenching and hop ups!
