I supose, ones it has been used and got dirty, he could always strip the MB to the chassis and clean each part like i do, so it looks sparkling.

Thanks to everyone for all the kind words. Not easy to see on the pictures but it is using the cc flip paint and so changes from green to blue depending on the angle you view it at. One of the pictures shows it off, but it might look like a reflection. If it looks blue it's because it is.

Dazzahughesuk, you are correct it is a monster beetle race supplied by Kevs Racing bits in the UK. Great company and highly recommended. After I asked if they could do it for me, Kev said not to be surprised if it turned up on the site.

I also agree with the not really wanting to get it dirty comment, but after all that's what it's there for. Had it running in the garden yesterday but not had chance to go out properly as yet. I thought I'd take a few pictures before I rolled it and scratch it all up. It doesn't seem as fast as my Savage at the moment but I'm sure that will change.
