I knew nothing about it, but it stuck on my radar. So I bought it and I'm glad I did. It's pretty cool.

That's so cool , die cast chassis and a beautiful body .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Haven't seen many of them around so I would guess no.
At least not the northern parts of Europe.

The fan on the motor looks awesome. Does it engage with a clutch or does it start spinning when the engine start.
