Need quick input

I have a chance to buy a brand new in box GS Avenger MK II RTR for 250 bucks Canadian. I know it's an older GS model, I think it's before the CL-1. It comes with everything roto start, glow plug light ect. Should I pick it up for a second basher? I'm pretty sure I'm going to, just wanted to find out if it's a complete piece of crap. Thanks

This is the car here

i use to work at a hobby store, these things are "OK". i mean for the money theres a lot better. shoot i hate to say it but the XTM XT2 holds its ground very well, for being XTM. i seen them on sale at hobby people for like 200-250 bucks and theres parts to last you a lifetime with it.

hope that helps.

The avenger II is an ok buggy for a beginner, can$250 for it is an OK price BNIB, go for it, will make a change to talk about somthing other that an MP7.5 US Sports RTR overpriced Kyosho.
