Tamiya 47308-60A Volkswagen Golf Mk.1 Group 2 M-05 Modelling Kit  [47308-60A]

Classic Touring Car Style with the Tamiya 47308-60A

The Tamiya 47308-60A captures the spirit of the Volkswagen Golf Mk.1 as raced in Group 2 events. This 1/12 scale kit reproduces the wide arches and race aero, while the supplied decal sheet helps recreate authentic sponsor artwork. The M-05 chassis underpins the build with a proven FWD setup familiar to many modders.

Detailing and Authenticity

Tamiya includes period-correct body contours and a decal pack to help you match the original race presentation. Builders can tweak paint schemes or leave a period patina if chasing a weathered race look.

M-05 Chassis Overview

The M-05 is a compact, semi-monocoque resin platform offering a low center of gravity and straightforward assembly. Its layout is friendly for those new to touring car kits and provides a sensible base for aftermarket upgrades.

On-Track Traits

With 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension and a 3-piece steering linkage, the chassis is set up for consistent handling. Racing slick tyres and carefully positioned internals improve grip and balance, making the car responsive through corners.

This kit is aimed at builders who enjoy classic touring car projects and want an M-05 chassis that accepts sensible performance upgrades over time.
