Thunder Tiger Phoenix ST II EP Buggy

Price: £114.99 Contact: 01943 466535, www.modelsport.co.uk

Ignore the plain shell and the boring styling, as the Phoenix ST II is a fast radio-controlled car. It’s rear-wheel drive, so it loves to skid, encouraging you to learn to control the power. It’s keenly priced, but you have to add your own battery, and you will need to find somewhere big enough to use the car – the HPI Mini Recon’s power is more accessible.
