    the HPI dvd that comes with the truck gives lots of good advise dude. Mine isn't even fully tuned yet but it's still a flyer I guess you never get things 100% the way you'd like them to be but it's fun getting there :-)
    Taking my savage out for a bash later and will be recording video, so watch this space :-)

    This thread is confusing me.... :confused:

    I'm not "selling" - vectra asked me if id sell, so i just went along with it :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,763 ✭✭✭g5hn710m4xpdwy


    you just confused me too :) are u selling this or just wondering what its gonna cost or whats happening? if you dooooo sell it remember me :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,209 ✭✭✭T-Maxx


    I reckon there must be 100's of Maxx's going to waste (in the shed out there) that have prolly not even had a gallon through them. Wish I could get me hands on them...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 258 ✭✭Vmaxer


    Man where did I come up with a price of 250 for mine, the one I'm selling to Vectra is just as clean, only differance is it stayed on the shelf for over a Year. Damn I should have have put it up for bids...:rolleyes:

    and thats why i was gettin angrey at him for teasing :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 691 ✭✭✭gs39t


    I bought mine just over a month ago, ran in the engine and that was it. I wouldnt put it for sale for 250 for the life of me! :eek: I wouldnt part with it for 350!

    Flunked, i DO need a camera lens for a holiday soon, and may part with the t-maxx for the price i told Vectra. I wouldnt go to the bother of shipping from Dublin though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,763 ✭✭✭g5hn710m4xpdwy


    you wouldnt need to botehr shippin it :P i live in north kildare and i am lets say on the border of dublin
    but i have been offered a hopped up maxx for about the same price delivered to here i think from the uk ;-/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 691 ✭✭✭gs39t


    Ok no probs. :)

    I cant beat 'hopped up', but spotlessly clean , delivery miles only is all i can offer :D

    lol that spotlessy clean makes it tempting but so does the hop ups :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 476 ✭✭no leaf clover


    i'd be tempted, have a savage but it doesnt run alot of the time!! although im sure i could spend less and have it running fine, maybe i jsut have a dillusional image of damage free driving!!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 104 ✭✭GenericName


    hey its flunked on his brothers account
    i am still interested in this cause the guy thats selling the hopped up oine hasnt got back to me/vectra

    maybe it needs a little bit of fine tuning Clover, Mine was grand last week and when I took it out yesterday it was like the settings had changed, So I went back to the base settings and retuned the engine this morning ... went like a rocket heh you should take a look at the dvd that comes with teh savage it gives detailed tuning instructions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 258 ✭✭Vmaxer


    I am starting to regret this deal I am doing with Vectra already, Its only when I took it out again I remembered how good the T-maxx was. I know when I look at this photo DSC07756.JPG I will regret selling it..
    I will blow the 250 on something stupid...I should take the time and tune it up...

    You CAN do better than 250 for sure. They have a great resale value. I'm not sure about selling mine either, but its just sitting beside my xbox and other things i bought but never use :rolleyes:

    They DO lose value.
    Can't do better than €250 now as the deal is done. ;)
    I recently bought a Revo for myself. Had 1/2 tank of fuel through it. I Paid €350 for it and we all know the Revo is more valuable than the T-Maxx. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,209 ✭✭✭T-Maxx


    Are you sure it's only half a tank (i.e. 62.5ml)? That's funny. All other previously owned trucks I've ever seen advertised had either just been run in, or only had half a gallon through it...;)

    Did I buy it from you?
    NO...!
    Was it advertised here ?
    NO..!!
    So please do not try to correct me or call me a liar until you know what you are talking about. ;)

    I think it is time that a Mod/Admin intervened in this sale so as to clear this matter up asap.;)

    I'm afraid I can't really do anything bar move the thread to the FS board, where these rules apply, which wouldn't make much sense, as the sale you're complaining about, isn't the sale on this thread at all...I'll chop posts relevent to the other tmaxx sale thread, and then move that one. Makes sense to me, I think. :)

    Then you jumped the gun by selling something you didnt even have (yet)
    "threatening to sue" ? :rolleyes:

    Yeah.. you may as well jump in and start makine "smart" comments about something that has nothing to do with you.


    I have in my possession a written agreement between myself and Dubsmax that he was selling the Tmaxx to me for 250 euro plus delivery.

    Now tell me where that would NOT stand up in court..!! :mad:

    I never actually started this thread, may aswell just delete the whole thing. It's going nowhere

    I think it would be a good idea to prohibit any more for sale threads here. Make them use the For Sale boards where this kinda sh1t won't be tolerated.

    Like i said, i posted the original post in the 'post a pic of your model' thread (which some mod used to start this thread). Read the original post and see how i was just responding to Vectra's questions. I never intended a for sale thread!

    Does Vectra think by threatining Me that I would change my mind and sell.
    I did apolagise to Him on an Email earlier today, no money changed hands and if he had given me a deposit I would have felt obliged to sell, but he didn't and He souldn't have sold something he is not in possesion of. Reading through the T&C on the boards I notice "It shouldn't be a place to make a quick buck, by trying to rip someone off. We don't like Del-Boy wannabes. We're all friends here. Right?"

    I think He seen me coming selling the Tmaxx for alot less than its worth and I have now decieded to keep it.

    Appoligies to anybody put out by this..

    Well, the general idea is post on the FS general forum and link to it from here..I'll just start moving them when I see them anymore..

    Locking this thread, if you want to discuss the other sale further, please post on it's own thread.
