Do you think his leg is tangled on the child seat harness?Money talks.Sex sells.Mud sticks.Time flys. happens.People talk.Impressions last!
I hope the driver is paying attention to the car in front - poor old Tom will get a slight headache if he passes too close, plus imagine if a passenger in that other car decides to copy Tom and open his door - what a mess!Loving the power of the TDV8!

Yes a local shop was selling silver, black and blue before Christmas. Can't say I would recommend it though, the Defender than has a low box is much better but do not last long. What I would like is something built on a proper RC running gear but with a LR body. RPI sell a Defender body for £15 that fits a Tamyia chassis which is the nearest I can see.
What was the price, and do you still find them in shops in the UK (possably whites? )
We got the Defender, and runs great indeed, but it's just to "have" it In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Looks like they have had to modify the D3 to achieve the stunt. Ie whats that bar running accross the Alpine Roof front to back ? And the rear ariel / satellite pod appears to be missing, plus a new silver bar side to side at the back. Maybe this is all to strengthen the Alpine Roof to carry Tom's weight...Disco 4 TDV6HSE

No idea about the other "modifications", but the "pod" is optional... it should only exist on vehicles with Factory PTI.
