The Vanquish legacy continues with the VQS 58686, a reissue that preserves the original character while incorporating practical updates. It gives enthusiasts a chance to build an iconic buggy with current engineering refinements.
The body keeps the familiar profile but the kit includes modern conveniences to reduce assembly time and improve service life. The pre-cut, pre-painted polycarbonate shell is user-friendly, while aluminium front uprights and universal shafts from the Avante 2011 re-issue add strength to critical suspension points.
The bathtub chassis provides a protective base and predictable handling traits. Planetary gear differentials smooth power delivery from the supplied 540-size brushed motor, and the platform is open to setup changes for different driving styles.
An ESC is included with the kit, bringing you close to running once all parts are assembled. You will need a 2-channel radio, a steering servo, plus a 7.2-volt battery pack and charger to finish the car.
Tamiya VQS 58686 blends nostalgia with usable upgrades, making it a rewarding project for builders and a credible runner for club events. It sits nicely between display appeal and genuine on-track capability.
