Celebrating the MK2 GTI 16V era, this kit reproduces the classic hatchback lines at 1/10 scale while mounting them on a chassis designed for mixed-surface driving. Tamiya 58714-60A gives hobbyists an authentic shell with a practical platform for everyday running and casual competition.
The MF-01X chassis features a compact monocoque frame and a 4WD configuration that balances durability and handling. Its rear motor installation drives the back gearbox directly, with a prop shaft transferring torque forward, and both ends use differential gears to smooth traction changes.
With a centrally located battery compartment for improved weight distribution and independent double wishbone suspension on each corner, the car provides predictable responses to setup changes. Friction dampers deliver basic shock control while leaving room for hop-up upgrades.
Tamiya 58714-60A is a smart pick for modellers who want a believable retro body paired with a chassis ready for tuning and regular running on mixed surfaces.
