CEN Fun Factor Mini Cooper – is there still a market for these, and where would you sell one?

Hi everyone,

I recently dug out my old CEN Fun Factor Mini Cooper 4WD Nitro from the early 2000s.

I bought it new back then and have owned it ever since. It was only driven about 10 times and is still in very original condition. I still have the original box, original CEN Impact II radio, NT-16 engine and the original John Cooper Challenge / Tony Franks Mini body.

The car was fully functional the last time I used it, approximately 8 years ago, and has been stored since then. I haven't tried to start it again yet, so I can't confirm its current running condition. The only known issue from when it was last used is one broken chassis mount.

I don't really know much about the vintage RC market. Searching online, I can find plenty of old CEN cars and parts, but surprisingly little about this particular Mini Cooper version.

Is there actually a collector's market for something like this today? And if I decided to sell it, where would be the best place to offer it?

eBay? Vintage RC forums/groups? Somewhere more specialized?

I'm located in Austria.

I'd also be interested to hear from anyone who remembers these or still owns one.

I've attached some photos of the car, chassis, radio and original box.

Thanks!
