Nothing wrong with a second hand Tamiya Tiger

The tamiya tiger is the most accurate tiger you can get but it is a kit which requires building and painting as you say your not into modelling or RC so perhaps go to the download section and download the instruction for the tiger to see whats involved in building it. If you think its to involved for you then go for the taigen.
Both the tamiya and the taigen have torsion bar suspension so if its going to spend time sitting around you will need to put a little support under the tank to stop the torsion bars from sagging.

I m confuse, because I did not see that he wanted one rtr.

Thank you for compliment, but my problem is tahn I don't know how to paint...

Try his first post.... "I’m not really into modelling or RC, I’m a militaria collector and love military history."

Enhancing a RTR seems to me the safest route.

Id just get Mr Adlavs Tamy Tiger.
Its RTR, has all the bits, and no doubt it was assembled well.
You get an accurate early tiger 1 finished to a high standard.
Plus you have spare funds to run wild on another project!

Or, a Taigen.
First, there are many versions of the 3 sub species, Early, Mid, and Late. Decision to make.
They are very good, and simple to use,easy to get parts for, but, are not 100% accurate out of the box.
Plus a decision on where to buy from..............

Your call but thats how I'd go if I lived up there.

Mmmm... decisions decisions...

I've been trying to PM you but keep getting SQL errors..

Hi I would suggest a Mato Tiger 1 . With Clarke system . All metal and sturdy

If it was my 55th birthday I would get myself an Aeromate Tiger.
I can’t keep my eyes off that master piece.

Err, slightly outwith my budget.
