Smile Volvo 350L

I was just wanting to know if anyone would know where I could buy a Volvo 350 L. I had the chance to drive a Volvo 330e. I would like to get one. it is close to the same size. Thanks for the help.

D@m! For $8570.oo Euro's, I can buy at auction a very well used REAL 1:1 version to ride around in! In U.S. Dollars, $857.oo is $10671.94

That THS loader in the link looks pretty similar to the RC4WD 870K, as for the shape of the body...... With different performance and details though.
If I had the 870, I would slap some some of those Volvo stickers on it...

Thumbs up Re: Volvo 350L

Couldn’t agree more! I could never justify spending that amount of money on a rc model especially on my salary. My cap is 3K that I’m willing to spend. I’m not about ready to take out a loan and pay interest on a rc model lol. But hey who am I to judge, everyone has different priorities in life.

Were lucky to have Eagle Machinery around or else the rc construction hobby would be out of reach for many

Priorities... THAT is why I started out with a brand new/newly assembled/barely used truck for $300 than pay twice that amount on a new kit.

Justifying that amount before knowing if I'll even like it would scare me (let alone borrowing money on it), even on these construction vehicles.

If your paying $600 on a truck kit your shopping in the wrong place, shouldn’t have to pay more than 400 on the most expensive Tamiya kit.
