This radio-controlled model assembly kit recreates the Volkswagen Golf II GTI 16valve.

The kit is based on the beginner-friendly and highly customizable BT-01 chassis, which allows hobbyists to grow as their driving and building skills develop.

Like the full-size car it depicts, the chassis configuration on the MB-01 chassis is set up in the front motor, front drive configuration for unparalleled realism.

About the Golf II 16V
The FF drivetrain Golf is one of Volkswagen’s most iconic cars.

From its first appearance in 1974, Volkswagen Golf 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 line up 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, and in the U.S. became a fan favourite hatchback of the 1980s era.

The MB-01 Chassis
The compact, 2WD MB-01 chassis gives a choice of three types of wheelbases, and a front- or rear- wheel drive system.

Without removing battery pack, motor, and R/C equipment setups from the centre 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.
