The Mini Cooper's reputation for nimble driving and compact engineering is reproduced in this 1/10 scale Tamiya model. Styled after the classic BMC-period racers, the kit combines period detailing with the adaptable MB-01 chassis to deliver a faithful and usable scale car.
The MB-01 chassis supports three wheelbase settings and can be configured for front- or rear-wheel drive, allowing enthusiasts to experiment with balance and handling. Its fully independent double wishbone suspension and friction shock dampers offer consistent behaviour and easy servicing.
The kit includes a lightweight polycarbonate Mini Cooper Racing body, 8-spoke wheels and 60D radial tyres to mimic authentic running characteristics. As an assembly kit it does not include a radio, servo or battery, so those components must be selected separately to suit your preferences.
Tamiya 58747 offers an attractive balance of scale authenticity and chassis adaptability. It is geared towards hobbyists who value correct detail and the ability to refine handling.
