Advantages: None
Disadvantages: All the parts are so poor quality

Purchased this car thinking that it would be easy to tune and maintain. Well I was certainly wrong about that. Opened the car to find instructions that weren't even instructions, the diagrams are very confusing with no labels, it does not tell you where the factory settings are for the carburettor screws, so after trouble tuning, I was told on the phone that I had to try and remember where the factory settings where!
