Tamiya Fast Attack Vehicle XB

Price: £199.99 Contact: 01908 605686, www.tamiya.co.uk

This buggy got off to a great start because it looks brilliant and is cheaper than the Tamiya Samba Van. But while the Fast Attack is fun to drive, it’s not the fastest, plus there’s not much ground clearance, so it struggled when not on smooth tarmac. It’s the same price as the quicker E-Firestorm, which can be used in the rain, and we’d buy that over this.
