This is the Losi Desert Buggy XL Ready to Run 4WD 1/5 Scale Buggy. The Losi® Desert Buggy XL™ makes its presence known with its enormous size and a roaring 23cc gasoline engine. The engineers at Losi designed this 1/5th-scale powerhouse to withstand the rigors of intense off-road driving with a 4WD drivetrain and heavy-duty construction that pulverizes the terrain at ballistic speeds. With a rigid injection molded roll cage built on a reinforced 5mm aluminum chassis, the Desert Buggy XL can withstand the punishment of the most brutal driving styles. The Desert Buggy XL is also in for the long haul with a large-capacity gas tank that provides over 40 minutes of relentless action on a full tank. When maintenance is a necessity, the roll cage can be removed for easy access to the chassis. The Losi Desert Buggy XL vehicle is large scale RC driving excitement at its most satisfying.

Overall this is a great vehicle with tons of potential. I have a DDM 29cc big bore kit to install on the engine, and need to replace a bent front hinge pin brace and bent front swaybar. (Hit an embankment at 75% throttle). Those are cheap to replace. About $12 each.
