The Tamiya 84212 Holiday Buggy (2010) red edition pairs classic aesthetics with sensible improvements for everyday off-road use. At 1/10 scale, it keeps the charm of the original while adding robustness for casual trail work.
The DT-02 2WD chassis is engineered for straightforward maintenance and dependable handling. The battery sits lengthwise to help lower the centre of gravity, and the sealed gearbox reduces the chance of grit reaching internal gears.
Featuring 4-wheel independent suspension and coil spring dampers, the buggy soaks up rough ground while maintaining stability. The ribbed front and spiked rear tyres aid steering bite and rear traction on softer surfaces.
Supplied with a 380 motor, the kit balances acceleration and control; fitting a 540 motor is possible for those after more speed. The included semi-finished driver figure lets you personalise the cockpit appearance.
The Holiday Buggy Red Edition is a sensible pick for modders and drivers who want a forgiving chassis with classic looks. It handles a range of surfaces and is easy to service between runs.
