    Version Info: This truck is a KIT. Assembly and painting is required. A plain white cab comes out of the box ready for paint. Photos show a completed and painted model. The Light Blue MEtallic truck comes pre-painted. Minimum 4+ channel radio system, ESC, battery, charger and servos will need to be purchased separately.

    Experience the realism of this expertly engineered model. An impressive representation of its real-life counterpart, which won the 2008 Truck of the Year award. Its two rear axles help it easily handle heavy loads over long distances, while its 12.4 liter turbocharged diesel engine meets the Euro 5 emissions standards for greater environmental conscientiousness. This award winning truck comes reproduced as a 1/14 scale electric RC model. The model boasts an impressive balance of style and performance with a detailed ladder frame chassis, aluminum channels, suspension with metal leaf springs, friction dampers, and differentials for realistic movement. The model's two different metal plating and metal transfers provide a true-to-scale finish, while the 3-speed transmission allows gear shifting during operation. Enhance your experience with the separately available MFC-01 or MRC-03 unit for sound and lighting actions.

    Your Tamiya truck is backed by Motion RC's world-renowned customer service and technical support. Drive on!

      It's good - but not the current model? Take a look at the ones that are being sold now with the rear view mirror cameras: https://www.truckpages.co.uk/news/ma...s-not-mirrors/ This one is like the older used MAN TGX for sale
