Hi. Ive decided to ditch my XXX-S and get myself a new car. Ive always wanted a predator DTM so i started searching on ebay. There is one on at the moment which has conventional upright rear shocks. As far as i was aware, they only made the DTM and Streetwise for on road but they both had lay-down rear shocks the same as the buggy. Can anyone shed any light on this?
Cheers Jay

I have an old DTM car and it has the shocks like in the onroad cars,
the more modern DTM's (200mm ?) have the straight shocks at the back.

That mean its likely to be a 200mm car? If this is the case its not gonna be good cos i need a 190 to conform to TC rules!

well the advertisement says it's 200mm so ....
and spares will be a BIG issue for you! onroad predator spares are VERY rare
(my onroad predator is for sale at 120£)

Dnt think we are looking at the same auction. This is the auction number for the one i was looking at is 6003122411. This the same one you have seen? Have it on good authority that spares issues are going to be a thing of the past as the X10 will be developed into a touring car for release in 2006!
Can you send me some pics of your onroad pred? Is it complete so i can transfer my running gear over and use it or does it need anything?
Thanks for all your help!
Jay

Hey Cooper.
I was sent an email from Richard Weatherly informing me of the future release of the X10 on road. If you want ill PM you a copy of the email. Your car looks sweet as well. Is there any reason your selling it? Could be quite interested in that. Also did you look at the car on ebay? Do you have any idea what it is because id like to know. The owner e-mailed me last night to say that it is a 190mm one so im a bit confused!
Cheers Jay

I saw a 200mm car on ebay, that auction has ended now. The car you saw will be a 190mm. I bought that onroad to have as collectors item, but I always said that If I could get a good price for it I would sell it again. it's just hanging on my wall now, it's cooler to see your money as a 'car' rather than just being on a bank account  |

Yea, different one to the pred im watching, but thanks tho. Maybe the one im watching is a 200mm converted to a 190mm when the wide body electric touring car was phased out of the BRCA rules, would explain conventional rear shock position.
Anyway your DTM is becoming increasingly tempting! is the £120 including postage? If not, any ideas how much o the UK?
Regards Jay

excluding, I think it would be around 10 or 15 euros, so around 10£
remember this is on old version of the touring car, but stil in new condition, I have 1 spare arm for you also.
would you want the (ugly alfa romeo JUKKI ) but original, unpainted (but with stickers) body with it ? it will make the package BIG though...
