The Tamiya 58400 Mini Cooper S 2006 reproduces the compact, sporty look of the original in 1/10 scale. It offers a realistic silhouette and period details that make it a satisfying build and display model.
Using the M03L chassis replicates the front-engine, front-wheel-drive geometry to give the model handling that matches expectations for a Mini. The rigid resin monocoque eases assembly and works with the independent double wishbone suspension to keep steering responsive.
The kit includes a polycarbonate body that reflects the 2006 styling including the bonnet scoop and rear wing, plus separate mirror parts for finer detail. Wheels and synthetic rubber radial tyres complete the authentic appearance.
For operation you will need a 2-channel transmitter, a compatible ESC and a 6-cell flat battery. Trimming, painting and setting ride height are key steps to get the best balance between looks and on-track behaviour.
The Tamiya 58400 Mini Cooper S 2006 is a versatile kit that rewards careful assembly and setup, delivering faithful looks and predictable handling for club runs and shelf display.
