Was kept in a collection all its life. It was taken out once when I had a kid and my boy only played with it one time. We live out in the woods and there's no concrete around, so my boy only drove it for a short period of time on carpet. So the tires have never touched asphalt. I repeat the tires have never touched asphalt. It was then put back up in the box and kept in storage. Upon posting this I've taken it out and tested the battery at full charge and it works. You got to make sure that the band is set to the right setting as the remote. Batteries for the remote are aftermarket but they are new. The car you see in the photos is a car you will receive so look at pictures closely for verification before purchasing. Shipping is high but it is a huge package over 2" but it will be packaged well and ship securely.. if you have any questions just ask. If you have any offers just message me
