While I relise that this is not a mobile phone!!
I have a 1:5 Radio controlled car to sell, this is not a toy! The car is capable of speeds of over 70Mph... YES 70Mph...
The car is powered by a 23cc Zenoha petrol engine.
I have only used the car on a few occasions (3/4 hour engine run time) It is fully assembled and ready to run, you do however need a large area to use this machine, a normal sized backgarden WILL NOT DO!!
Just to give you an idea of the size, I have taken photo of the car next to a 1:10 scale Ford Focus (this is the type of model you see in your local hobby shop)
To give you an idea of what the engine looks like, take a look at the picture below.
As stated the car comes ready to run, you only need to add petrol and start the engine and off you go.
The radio gear as also top of the range (3ch digital transmiter and receiver)
If you are interested and would like to see any other photos, please PM me and I will post them or email them to you.

@ Ahdam
You dont need glo fuel, it runs on petrol 4star or unleaded!!
As for a price, the car cost over £1000.00 new So I would be looking for a price around £450.00.
I also built it myself, full instruction will be provided to the buyer.

I really uses petrol..
The engine is made by zenoah, they tend to make lawnmower engines and engines for small industrial machines.

@Homer,
If it cost over £1000, why didn't you just buy a car? 
Much more fun IMO!
Does it have working lights?
It would be totally sick if it had headlights, and brake lights.
On that note, does it even have brakes??

@ djkizlive
If you want to buy a real car then buy a real car, I am simply tyring to sell a model car!
As for headlights, I am sure you could fit headlights if you wanted...
"If it cost over £1000, why didn't you just buy a car?"
I also have a real car!!!!!

lol, in that case it's alright 
did you ever try taking your car down the motorway at 70Mph, and have that little car driving underneath it?
That would be kinda funny, lol.
Note: I'm not trying to poop on your sale, but £1k is a shocking price to pay for a model car, but as you have a real car, i suppose it's acceptable (rich cúnt!)

the 70mph is not the same as real lifesize car....that speed refers to the scale speed.

@master, 70mph is the true speed of the car. These things are scary fast, smelly and noisy. But hell of a lot of fun! In fact, adding different ratio gearbox may get it closer to 90. Now we're needing pilots licence!
