SAME AS STANDARD KIT, WITHOUT ESC INCLUDED Introducing to the Tamiya lineup the powerful, durable, stylish, speedy and all-mighty 2004 Dakar Rally Volkswagen Touareg. Nothing but a Tamiya cross country chassis could do the Touareg true justice. About the Touareg Dakar Rally Making its debut in this year’s Dakar Rally, unquestionably the toughest rally in the world, the expectations of the Touareg team was simple, just finish the race. With a 57% retirement rate in the car category, making it one of the toughest Dakar rallies ever, not only did the Touareg meet these expectations, it superseded them. B. Saby in car no. 224 finished 6th overall, and the “Queen of the Desert” J. Kleinschmidt, the only ever female winner of the Rally, took out 1st place in stage 16, and secured 4 other top-5 stage finishes to climb from 123rd place to finish 17th overall. The Touareg rally version features large air-intakes on the roof and bonnet, and cleaning fan in the cockpit, an indispensable fitting for desert running. The Touareg displayed its power, maneuverability and speed in its debut year, a declaration of things to come. Long wheelbase 4WD cross country chassis (based on the Tamiya 58178 Honda CR-V) Markings for car No. 204 (Kleinschmidt/Pons) and No. 224 (Saby/Stevenson)
