Hacking toy RC cars
Project Lab provides the details on how to produce a wireless robotics platform using a cheap RC toy vehicle, Arduino, XBee and Processing. The vehicle is completely controlled by the code running on the remote computer which allows very rapid prototyping of the code to tell the vehicle what to do and how to react to the sensor events received from the vehicle. Complete Arduino and Processing code included.

Another robot with arduino and bluetooth and source code: http://www.sistemasorp.es/2010/07/03/robot-con-arduino-motorshield-modulo-bluetooth-y-camara-portatil/
I have a truck very similar to this one that I am turning into an autonomous vehicle. I will probably add a camera which transmits video back to me so I can see what is going on.
