This is a plastic assembly kit — not ready to run — and is aimed at builders who enjoy the construction process as much as the driving. The MB-01 chassis uses a mid-motor, 4WD layout in a compact form factor, making it a genuinely fresh platform rather than a scaled-down version of an existing design. The finished model is suited to smooth indoor surfaces and carpet tracks, where its small footprint and tight dimensions come into their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/32 scale MB-01 chassis with mid-mounted motor and 4WD drivetrain in a compact layout designed for small-scale touring car running\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRequires assembly — body, chassis, and drivetrain components are supplied unbuilt, making this a rewarding project for intermediate to experienced kit builders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMini Cooper Racing body captures the classic rally-inspired styling with detailed panel lines and provisions for decal finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for smooth surfaces and carpet tracks where the small chassis dimensions suit tight, technical layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTamiya's kit build quality means parts fit accurately with standard hobby tools, though painting and finishing are left to the builder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTamiya MB-01 chassis components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMini Cooper Racing plastic body shell\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDecal sheet for livery finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScrews and hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstruction manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat You Need\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-channel radio transmitter and compatible receiver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElectronic speed controller (ESC) suitable for the MB-01\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrushless or brushed motor compatible with the MB-01 motor mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteering servo\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLiPo or NiMH battery pack and compatible charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePolycarbonate or body paint and primer for finishing the shell\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard hobby tools for assembly (screwdrivers, pliers, hobby knife)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48768169541869,"sku":"TAM58747","price":235.03,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2194\/5657\/files\/I_58747.jpg?v=1758683271","url":"https:\/\/www.hobby-city.com.au\/products\/tamiya-58747-mini-cooper-racing-mb-01","provider":"Hobby City NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
