Hornby Scalextric Truck Racing Set: C551.


Pre-owed

Courier delivery within the UK

Colour may vary due to lighting and monitor


Condition:

The box has age and storage wear throughout including scuffs, indents, tears, dings, small holes, scuffs, marks, and it has brown tape attached in places, and some residue. It still closes fine and keeps together. I wouldn’t recommend picking it up from the handle.

Some original cardboard packaging inserts and included, but I’m not sure if it’s all of them.

-

The set is almost complete, but it does have a few things missing: flags, and 4 track wedges. It also comes with extra pieces not from this set.

-

The instructions have creases, and marks.

-

The flag label sheets are unused, but the flags aren’t included. A few have bending.

-

The yellow barriers have been used, but the rest haven’t.

-

A pack of 4 braids are included which are still sealed. The vehicles have got one each attached.

-

A power bank has been included, but it is untested as it isn’t for this set. The box has storage wear and tear.

-

The lap counter hasn’t been tested, but again it doesn’t come with this set originally.

-

The track has general use wear including, scratches, scuffs, fading, markings, and rust to the metal in places. One of the extra track connections needs soldering down. Some of the metal connections have bending, but they still connect fine.

-

The hand controllers are in overall very good condition. They both work, along with the vehicles, but they only seem to work on the inside of the track, the trucks move very slowly, keep stopping and starting, and not working on certain parts of the track.

The whole set might just need a good clean, and/or the braids might need changing, but we didn’t want to open the packet. Hopefully the whole set just needs some TLC. You are buying this set with this knowledge.

-

The power base works, but it has a crack/hole in the top, and the broken part is rattling inside. We are unsure if this is why only one side of the track is working.

-

There is a small silver component still attached to the packaging frame.

Both trucks are in good condition but there a few small components that have broken off of the trucks, and are missing. Things like wing mirrors, bumpers, door handles, roof attachments, etc. There is some glue residue in places.

A couple of the broken off pieces are present, but they could possibly be glued back on.
