Schumacher Cougar SV2 2WD Off Road RC Buggy

Schumacher are never ones to rest on their laurels. They’re back in 2012 with the new Cougar SV2, a revised, updated and improved version of the Cougar SV, winner of the BRCA 1:10 Off-Road National Championships. The SV2 sits much lower then its predecessor and its sleeker lines and hard anodised, laser-etched chassis is now 8mm longer than the SV too. Heavy duty race spec differential, uprated bearings and tougher driveshafts have also been shoehorned into this rather capable off road racer.

Available in both assembled and kit form, the Schumacher Cougar SV2 is destined to be a winner at many international clubs in the near future as I’m confident it’ll see some National and International titles notched up on its bed post before long too!
