    hello roy
    i normally rinse mine in tepid soapy water, and let it dry,and give it a quick polish,
    although you have tobe carefull with exhaust pipes end as the are very easy to break of.
    cmc 250gt should arrive this week,got my hands on the yellow version.

    no never taken it apart,i just washed the complete model in a basin of soapy tepid water
    it cleans the dust from the interior no problem,i used a small amount of washing up liquid
    and did the job,it will save you taking the model apart

    Yes, maybe for south america, but Mexico is located in north america. =)

    anyway, I don`t know if it´s the mexican postal service who actually stink! or the connection between mexico and asia, but I have had so many troubles with packages coming from there, and also, mexican government charges 300% TAX to products coming from asia!!!!! so at the end I think is not that great deal to buy my stuff there. I envy you guys, that receive products from there without all the hassle I do. =(

    Best regards

    Ever
