The FF drivetrain Golf is one of Volkswagens most iconic cars. From its first appearance in 1974, the Volkswagen Golf has continued to develop and lead the worldwide compact car class. In 1986, the Golf II GTI 16V was added to the second-generation model Golf II lineup which had made its debut in 1983. With a 1,781cc inline-4 DOHC 16-valve engine, a tuned car took part in global rally races, in 1986 becoming class champion. This R/C model assembly kit recreates that car, with the iconic form captured by a polycarbonate body and separate parts for headlight cases plus side mirrors. Stickers are included to add further detail to the body.
The MB-01 Chassis
The compact, 2WD MB-01 chassis gives a choice of three types of wheelbase, and front- or rear- wheel drive system. This model employs a front-wheel drive setup. Without removing battery pack, motor and R/C equipment setups from the center frame, simply change attachment directions of final gears and steering linkage to switch between front- and rear-wheel drive; low or high motor position can be chosen for rear-wheel drive cars. The 4-wheel double wishbone suspension features symmetrical structure and friction dampers. Unitized sections such as motor mount, final gears and suspension facilitate ease of assembly and effective maintenance.
Tamiya MB-01 Volkswagen Golf II RC Rally Car Kit: Build Your Dream RC Car with Six Unique Setups!
The Tamiya MB-01 Chassis Kit is the latest addition to the popular M-chassis series, known for its affordability, versatility, and ease of use. This 1/10 scale chassis builds upon the success of its predecessors, offering even more options for customisation and performance. With the ability to choose from three different wheelbases and either a front- or rear-wheel-drive system, the MB-01 allows for six unique setups to match your driving style and preferences.
The MB-01 chassis is designed for both beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts. Its user-friendly design makes it easy to assemble and maintain, while the wide range of compatible bodies opens up a world of possibilities for creating your dream RC car. The kit also includes the option to recreate the Volkswagen Golf II Rally Car, a legendary rally car that’s sure to turn heads on the track. Whether you’re looking for a fun and affordable entry into the world of RC cars or a versatile platform for serious competition, the Tamiya MB-01 Chassis Kit is the perfect choice.
The MB-01 chassis is built with performance and customisability in mind. The MB-01 has a highly adjustable platform that’s perfect for a variety of driving styles and can be adjusted to a wide range of wheelbase options, 209mm for short, 224mm for medium, and 239mm for long.
Additionally, you can set this versatile chassis up in a front wheel drive or rear wheel drive setting, making the MB-01 one of the most customisable machines!
The three-section steering system, operated by a long link rod connected to a rear-mounted servo, provides precise and responsive steering control for confident handling on a wide range of terrains.
The double wishbone suspension, with its symmetrical suspension arms, provides balanced handling and predictable performance. This design ensures consistent response and control, allowing you to hit the apex everything time.
Maintenance is a breeze thanks to the MB-01’s unitised motor mount. Secured with just two screws, it allows for quick and easy access to the motor for adjustments or upgrades.
The rear left mounted motor delivers power directly to the rear wheels via a driveshaft, providing a classic rear-wheel-drive driving experience with fast and responsive acceleration and exciting handling.
Additionally, this central motor mounting position creates better weight bias.

The MB-01 chassis utilises the same durable 4-bevel differential gear as the TT-02 chassis, making access to replacement parts much easier. For those seeking further customisation, the differential can be upgraded with optional TT-02 ball differentials or oil-filled gear differentials.
Designed for hassle-free battery replacement, the MB-01 features an innovative flip-up battery holder. This clever design allows you to quickly swap out batteries without any fuss, keeping the action going.
