I love the rear overhang on the D2. Good choice.

DextheMax · Jun 28, 2018

I had a few reasons to go for this one..
1 the color
2 Nice tires..hehe
3 the engine.
4 low milage.
5 the spec

Nice!

Wots the rear quarter of chassis like?
Looked at a D2 chassis for a friend the other day and I was actually taken aback by how bad it was, especially top of chassis rails near rear spring mount! Personally put me off d2's for life (although I do notice in the new lrm a company now supplying galv chassis' for them)!

Looks good!

Smallest engine?

Yep, just do not do a search for the supplier here, ....LOL. Some are surprisingly good...but most of the D2 chassis are bad...LOL.

Cheers

My D2 chassis only lasted 13 years before I had to replace it with a new galvanised one. Now the chassis is still brilliant but the body is beginning to corrode in places,

It's only 18 years old and a mere youngster with only 252,000 miles on the clock.

Oh but my Betsy only done 100k miles.. slow but steady wins the race.
And she is like a woman..
High maintanance, drinks a lot and takes all my money

Watch out!! You are talking to a WOMAN.

I have to say it doesn't drink a lot, but ........

Nice looking disco but do those tyres make the ride noisy?

You can hear them.. not as noisy as the muddies on my freely hippo though.
