TAMIYA RC 1/10 MINI COOPER RACING (MB-01)

Tamiya RC 1/10 Mini Cooper Racing (MB-01) 2WD Front-Wheel-Drive Assembly Kit

Bring an icon of British motoring history to your workbench with the Tamiya RC 1/10 Mini Cooper Racing. Inspired by the original Mini Cooper produced by the British Motor Corporation, this compact 1/10 scale assembly kit captures the tiny car's instantly recognisable proportions, racing-inspired overfenders and classic front-wheel-drive character on Tamiya's versatile MB-01 chassis.

Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring assembly; it ships as a build-it-yourself kit and does not arrive pre-built or ready to run.

The model uses the MB-01 in its short-wheelbase, front-motor and front-wheel-drive configuration. Eight-spoke wheels and 60D radial tyres complement the compact body, while the MB-01 chassis provides three possible wheelbases and both front- and rear-wheel-drive configurations for compatible bodies. Its symmetrical double wishbone suspension and unitised sections make assembly and maintenance pleasantly straightforward.
