Tamiya 58438 Mini Cooper Racing M-05 Classic Kit  [58438]

Iconic Mini Styling with Modern Chassis

The Tamiya 58438 Mini Cooper Racing brings the Mini's familiar profile to a 1/10 scale RC form. When mounted on the M-05 chassis, the model delivers a blend of retro looks and chassis traits that reward careful setup.

Balance and Handling on the M-05

The M-05 chassis locates electronics toward the rear to achieve a balanced weight distribution and a lower center of gravity. This results in improved composure during cornering and a more predictable feel at speed.

Authenticity in Details and Performance

The detailed Mini body is complemented by 60D radial tyres and silver Rover Mini Cooper wheels to match the original appearance while offering usable grip. The 3-piece tie-rod steering linkage helps maintain accurate steering geometry for consistent response.

Customising Your Mini

Owners can fit a range of optional enhancements to suit different driving environments. From motor upgrades to suspension adjustments and cosmetic touches, the M-05 platform is flexible for personalisation.

The Tamiya 58438 Mini Cooper Racing kit on the M-05 chassis appeals to those who enjoy modelling accuracy and tuning. It serves well as a display piece, a fun runner, or a base for incremental performance upgrades.
