Second October purchase. Another MSC car, the RS200.
Sold as new but unboxed it went for what I would consider a fair price for a used car. However, I was delighted when it arrived to find it was new, mint, boxed, complete with the small and separate BEGA decal sheet. Only issue, if you could call it that, which made it NOT 'mint boxed' was that the clear panel was missing from one end of the card sleeve!
One problem this second RS200 has confirmed though, is that there is 'something going on' with the wheelbase.
On the drivers side (LHD) the front and rear wheels centre nicely in the arches.
On the other side, can I get the wheels centred? Front yes, rear, no way.
I had the same problem with my track car but thought it was a one-off. Clearly not. Anyone else noticed this?
It's not the chassis. It sits flat and square on the set-up block. It's the body. One rear wheelwell is about 1-1.5mm out of line with the other - and this is on both bodies!
