## Description

Tamiya Electric DF-03 Dark Impact 4WD Buggy Kit : desertcart.co.uk: Toys & Games

Review: RC Dark Impact - An excellent 4wd remote control car. Takes roughly 5 hours to build it correctly. Complicated dif assembly but satisfying when you get it completed. Kit still requires an electronic speed controller, battery, remote control and servo to make the kit fully functional. Very fast car with excellent handling and runs great on all surfaces be it tarmac, sand and even grass. I also have an old Tamiya Madcap and this car leaves it for dust but then again the Madcap is nearly 23 years old!
Review: Cheapest by far - Having searched everywhere this was the cheapest I could find this car on the net by around £40 and was free delivery. Great model turned up within a couple of day. Very happy.
