It all depends on where you see the value in the brand compared with other brands. In my experience, Scalextric seem to have more quality issues now. I would rather buy one more expensive car than 2 cheaper ones because the quality is much better with some of the other brands.
@@lewismumby2040They do have some issues they need to sort out because as the hobby expands they will get left behind without innovation and changes. Scalextric spend a lot on licensing compared to other brands. Only Scalextric themselves can make the changes needed to survive in the competitive market.
Thanks Paul for keeping us updated!!!!!!
