Precision scale model of the MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX by Tamiya

This Tamiya kit recreates the MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX in 1/14 scale for modellers who want accurate exterior detail and a hands-on construction experience. The design balances display fidelity with practical running characteristics.

Paint finish and accurate body components

The body is pre-coated in Tamiya TS-10 French Blue and sealed with a clear varnish to retain shine. High-quality ABS moulding reproduces the cab profile and trim, while plated fittings and metal transfers lend convincing scale chrome detailing.

Robust chassis design and driveline

A two-axle chassis with aluminium side channels and resin cross members forms a sturdy base. The front-mounted motor transfers power down a propeller shaft to the rear axle and differential units to aid handling. The 3-speed gearbox can be controlled with a separately supplied 4-channel radio for realistic shifting on the move.

Serviceable cab features and towing compatibility

The cab tilts forward to mirror maintenance access and the metal leaf spring suspension with friction dampers gives a lifelike response to load. The supplied coupler is compatible with Tamiya 1/14 trailers, enabling you to build a complete transport setup.

The MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX kit from Tamiya is ideal for hobbyists seeking a faithful model that combines display detail with functioning drivetrain options.

The cab is pre-painted, so only minor touch-ups or custom detailing are usually needed unless you choose a full repaint for a custom look.
Wear items like drive pins, small linkages and tyres are the most commonly replaced parts; keeping a basic spares kit is handy for maintenance.
As with all radio models, check local site rules before running in public spaces. The model is suited to club venues and private property where RC vehicles are permitted.
The kit includes light buckets that take small LEDs. Wiring and LEDs are not supplied, but the layout makes it easy to add a lighting loom for realistic illumination.
