The Tamiya VW Split Screen Type 2 T1 Bus (M-06), part number HC-58668, recreates the iconic first-generation Volkswagen Bus in detailed 1/10 scale. Its accurately moulded polycarbonate "23-window" body captures the classic lines and charm, mounted on Tamiya’s well-regarded rear-wheel drive M-06 chassis for authentic, enjoyable road performance.
With a rear-mounted motor and a low centre of gravity, the M-06 layout delivers predictable traction and poised handling.
