Tamiya have over 30 years of design experience in the radio controlled car market. Their tried and tested style of diagramatic instruction booklet, backed up by scale drawings and written text give an excellent starting point in radio controlled car building. Parts are packed according to the order in which they are used, and electrical components are designed as plug n' play. No Soldering required. Most projects take approximately 4-5 hours, and are absorbing and educational.

All kits come excluding the Radio Control set, battery and chargers, so these need to be purchased as an add-on, or if you've already had a car of this type just transfer the radio across. We generally recommend Tamiya Polycarbonate Spray Paints, which give an excellent finish, these can be purchased separately, so as to give a choice of colours.

Tamiya 1/10 Mini Cooper S RC Car Kit (58400)
The 2007 model year saw the release of a re-engineered MINI, which many have unofficially dubbed as the Mk.II MINI. Although it looks similar to the first generation MINI, it uses completely new body panels and also features such cosmetic changes as repositioned turn signals and new front grille. The Cooper S is the top-of-the-line model and is powered by a turbocharged 175hp 4-cylinder engine mated to either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The engine also has a unique Over boost function that pumps out more torque when it is needed,giving the car performance to match its sporty image

Requires ADPO1 Radio and slow charger or ADPO2 Radio and quick charger packages to complete.

Compact M-03L chassis features front-mounted motor and front-wheel drive, just like the actual MINI, to enable realistic handling. Easy-to-assembly monocoque frame is made from durable resin material. 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension helps produce nimble cornering. New body parts made from lightweight polycarbonate accurately reproduce the subtle changes of the MINI Cooper S 2006, including hood scoop and wing. Separately-molded parts for side mirrors ensure sharp detail. Stylish wheels equipped with synthetic rubber radial tires.
