Tamiya has produced the iconic Fiat 131 Abarth Rally Olio Fiat on the user-friendly MF-01X rally chassis, designed for easy assembly and an enjoyable driving experience.
The Fiat 131 Abarth Rally originated from the Fiat 131 Mirafiori, which debuted in 1976 and achieved global rally championship victories in 1977 and 1978. This kit faithfully replicates the livery of the Olio Fiat version.
The MF-01X is a compact 4WD system suitable for various terrains, with a rugged monocoque frame, rear-mounted motor, gear-driven rear wheels, propeller shaft to the front, and 4-wheel independent double wishbone suspension with friction dampers. The kit includes off-road capable M-05Ra chassis uprights and hub carriers, and spoke wheels with rally block tyres.
Note
This kit comes without an Electronic Speed Control. The polycarbonate body shell is completely unpainted and may require body post holes to be drilled. Only use polycarbonate-safe paint such as the Tamiya PS series — standard paints will not adhere and may damage the body shell.
