The Tamiya 58578-60A captures the Ford Zakspeed Turbo Capri Gr.5 in faithful 1/10 scale on the TT-02 platform. It honours the classic Zakspeed-Ford partnership that made the Capri a familiar sight in early 80s touring races, notably the 1981 campaign.
Designed to be user friendly, the TT-02 chassis offers straightforward assembly and solid potential for upgrades. Improvements over the TT-01 help with lateral stability and speed. The kit's 4WD gearbox drive gives predictable traction and allows hobbyists to add Hop-Up Options for better handling.
The clear polycarbonate shell mirrors the Capri's aerodynamic silhouette and includes a set of vinyl stickers for the Wurth livery. A window mask is included for tidy painting, while separate light units and a rear wing piece enhance accuracy. The chassis design features mirrored suspension arms and a chamfered main plate to aid cornering clearance.
Tamiya's Ford Zakspeed Turbo Capri Gr.5 kit is suitable for newcomers learning the hobby and for veterans who want a period-correct touring car to customise and race.
