Hello from south wales,uk. just thought I would say hello to everyone on here. I'm looking forward to getting back into r/c tanks. Have still got a Tamiya king tiger from about 11 years ago, and the running chassis of the original tamiya leopard from about 30 years ago. looking at the purchase of a henglong leopard 2 to start as a project(would have liked a Tamiya one but to expensive). Any advice on this project will be welcome. hope to hear from anyone with any advice.

i'm no help at all
cheers
lister

hi just noticed the above, but to late as I have a heng long leopard 2 arriving tomorrow. would have probably been to expensive anyway really. much better quality though.

£186.00 delivered. much better quality than I was expecting. not as good as Tamiya but not to bad. just requires a few mods and go faster parts lol.
