Vanquish Heritage Updated in the Tamiya VQS 58686

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.

Key Upgrades While Keeping the Classic Look

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.

Robust Chassis Layout and Drive System

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.

Almost Ready to Run After Assembly

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.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Body: Pre-cut and pre-painted polycarbonate
  • Chassis: Bathtub type
  • Motor: 540-size brushed
  • Differential: Planetary gear units
  • ESC: Included

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.

Very pleased with the service. I will order again soon. Thanks
Yes, but youll need a suitable brushless motor and ESC, and you may have to check motor mount spacing and gearing to ensure compatibility.
The planetary gear differentials are straightforward to access via the chassis design. Routine inspection and light lubrication will keep them running smoothly.
For hardpack club tracks choose medium compound tyres with a tread suited to the surface. Soft compounds can be useful on slippery or cooler conditions.
Replacement bodies and polycarbonate paints are available through hobby retailers; you can also source decals for period-correct liveries.
