The Tamiya 57742 XB Mini Cooper recreates the agility and charm of the original 1960s Mini in a 1/10 scale model. Celebrated for punchy performance on rally stages and tight circuits, the full-size Mini inspired this small but lively RC that is equally at home on short courses and display shelves.
The model features a royal blue polycarbonate body with a white roof and bonnet stripes, alongside metal-plated grille and bumper trims that give authentic visual impact. The scale body mates to the M-03 chassis, where a front-mounted motor and front-wheel drive layout echo the driving stance of the classic Mini.
The M-03's mid-battery arrangement improves front-to-rear balance and makes steering reactions more consistent. Four independent double-wishbone suspension arms and friction dampers combine with the 540-type motor to provide stable responses on smooth surfaces and technical courses.
Supplied ready-to-run, the kit includes a trigger-type transmitter and the TEU-101BK electronic speed controller so you can be driving with minimal setup. Replaceable crystals let you switch frequencies when running alongside other RCs.
Tamiya 57742 XB Mini Cooper delivers a compact driving experience with classic lines and dependable chassis behaviour, ideal for model fans who appreciate authentic heritage and easy handling.
