I like the KT better myself but since you're getting a quality tank either one should run great.

I have never heard of these people before although I know they are based in Suffolk,
Comparing prices of some of the other products with what I already know I think if these people are the real deal you stand to be getting a bargain so go for the Tank you most like,
If it were me I would get the Tiger 1 simply because there is much more in the way of upgrades. But be wary unless you get information from others on the Forum or already know that these people are ok.
shaun.

I ordered a tank from these guy's when I first started, It came with a faulty mfu, I phoned them they came to pick it up, took an age to get another back because they source their tanks from Nitrotek who were out of stock at the time..Well I got the tank back and all was fine, so not a bad company and if you go for the taigen k/t I've owned that one, make sure to glue all the track pins in, they have a tendency to keep popping out with that particular tank...

I'd get a ............SHERMAN............
It's a nimble tank in comparison to the two you are looking at ...easier to waterproof (if you desire)since the suspensions are already isolated...and the internals are basically the same

I know the answers weren't really but you may as well ask what's the best beer, or motor oil, or blonde brunette or red head. Every one of us has a different opinion and everyone of us will give you a different answer.

Like I said I like the King Tiger best. Why? Well the way the large teeth are on the tracks tends to not be able to throw it's tracks as easy as a Tiger. Yes the custom options aren't as much as a Tiger however for a new person this can be a good thing as it can become overwhelming very fast with all the options not to mention their are SO many "Tiger experts" here that hand out WRONG information like candy and we're all kids and it's Halloween time! My latest Tiger build has had to be fixed TWICE listening to the local "experts" till I found out they were wrong and I was right to begin with. However I know better then to post this fact as they'll argue till the end of time, post links and maybe even a pick or 2 however because there are Soooo oo many different types of Tigers what they're posting isn't the type of Tiger I'm building! In the end my Tiger has been sitting for months cause I got tired of having to fix things others told me to do to make it correct when it really didn't.

So easiest way to fix that for a new member is to suggest something a little easier to do then to dive straight to the deep end. Looking at the 2 choices you listed and for the resonance I listed that's why I said the King Tiger.

SHERMAN!!! You don't ever hear anyone with gripes about a SHERMAN
