Tamiya 57747 XB Audi A4 DTM 2005 - Ready-built TT-01 touring replica

The Tamiya 57747 XB Audi A4 DTM 2005 is supplied as a ready-built, factory-finished touring replica that showcases the race body and sponsor livery without requiring builder painting. The XB designation means the shell and decals are complete while the TT-01 chassis provides an accessible, service-friendly mechanical base. The result is a model suitable for immediate display or straightforward running once electronics are installed.

Chassis and mechanical layout

Based on the TT-01 platform, the car uses a shaft-driven 4WD layout designed for dependable handling and ease of maintenance. The factory configuration retains the Type 540 motor spec and carries differential gearboxes at both ends. Suspension uses independent double wishbones to produce touring car geometry familiar to many RC drivers.

Bodywork and visual fidelity

The polycarbonate body is pre-painted and fitted with factory-applied decals that reflect the race presentation. Panel fit and decal placement are done at the factory to provide a display-ready finish. Urethane bumper elements and race-specific detailing keep the visual proportions true to the full-size car.

Intended audience and use

The XB format is aimed at hobbyists who prefer a finished visual presentation and immediate usability without bodywork tasks. It is appropriate for beginners wanting a quick entry point and collectors who value a factory-applied livery. Maintenance demands remain moderate thanks to the TT-01 architecture.

Yes. While the body and chassis are complete, you must supply a compatible battery pack, an ESC, and a receiver to power the Type 540 motor and use the Expec R/C transmitter for control.
Servicing is straightforward thanks to the TT-01's simple layout and common fasteners; drive train access and routine checks do not typically require specialised tools.
The TT-01 accepts common aftermarket upgrades for shocks, tires and drivetrain parts; these can improve handling and durability if you plan to use the car more aggressively on track.
The factory paint and decals are robust for display and normal use, but repeated impacts and abrasive contact will eventually show wear, so handle the car accordingly during running sessions.
Yes. The XB presentation and accurate livery make this Tamiya 57747 an attractive piece for collectors who want a finished, brand-faithful touring car straight from the box.
