This looks like fun, a 1:10 scale W116 made by Tamiya

That is not OEM suspension and I know w116's have big batteries but that's ridiculous.

Oh it's a model

How old/new is this model Des, new to market?

Unsure, found these pics on another forum,

1:10 scale even as a static model would be nice, but to hoon around a carpark and do wheelies without hurting your 1:1 scale W116 would be a lot of fun.

That little puppy was courtesy of ebay, got in Spain I think, it was supposedly a non runner, but I tinkered and got it going. The brand is Riko, theres usually a few of them on ebay from time to time in various states of disrepair.

Well yes but that's a given. Actually red is growing on me. There's a red 350se on ebay somewhere in Vic. Beautiful for about $4k. I wont be getting it of course but it does look cool. Red on cream.
