Remote controlled vehicle

Hello all,
Im designing a remotely controlled vehicle for a university project, could you guys tell me if the componants below are compatable and have any of you used the sheild before? Or what sheild is better/cheaper/easier to get hold of in the UK.

2 x Arduino Leonardo

2 x Adruino/Xbee Sheild

2 x XBee

Am I right in thinking that the XBee is a series 1.

Am I right in thinking that the XBee is a series 1.

Given that Farnell is linking the right datasheet they are series 2.

Thanks for the reply,

This is a series 1 correct?
And has anyone used that sheild before, or can anyone recomend a cheap one?

Regards

Yes, looks like.
