Tamiya VW Golf II GTI 16V (MB-01)
About this product
The Tamiya VW Golf II GTI 16V (MB-01) is a 1/10 scale 2WD rally car kit. It arrives as a box of parts rather than a finished car, so you assemble the chassis, fit the electronics and paint or trim the body before the first run.
Finished, it measures 383mm long with a 239mm wheelbase. The body is polycarbonate, so it takes knocks better than a hard shell.
Tamiya supply an electronic speed controller in the box.
