Tamiya 1/10 RC Alpine A110 1973 Jägermeister
M‑06 Chassis (Item #58708 / 58708‑60A)
Overview
Classic Rally Champion Recreated on Tamiya’s Rear‑Motor M‑06 Platform
The Tamiya Alpine A110 1973 Jägermeister is a 1/10 scale electric R/C on‑road kit that faithfully recreates the iconic French rally car that made motorsport history. The real Alpine A110 became the first World Rally Champion in 1973, and its striking Jägermeister orange livery also earned success in German circuit racing.
Tamiya captures this legendary machine with a highly detailed polycarbonate body mounted on the rear‑wheel‑drive M‑06 chassis, delivering authentic RR handling characteristics and classic scale realism.
About the Alpine A110 M‑06
Body & Scale Details
The Alpine A110’s compact, flowing coupe shape is reproduced using a 1.0 mm thick polycarbonate body, accurately capturing its distinctive proportions. Scale realism is enhanced with:
-
Separately molded ABS plastic parts for headlights, front and rear bumpers, and side mirrors
- Mirror faces with metal‑plated finish
-
Comprehensive decal set recreating sponsor logos, race numbers, and Jägermeister branding
-
Window masking stickers included to simplify painting
Dish‑type wheels in a classic finish complete the vintage racing look.
M‑06 Chassis – Rear‑Motor, Rear‑Drive
The model is built on Tamiya’s M‑06 chassis, configured with a 210 mm wheelbase. This chassis features a rear‑mounted motor and rear‑wheel‑drive layout, closely mirroring the drivetrain configuration of the full‑scale Alpine A110.
The battery is mounted longitudinally, with R/C components positioned on either side to achieve excellent balance and a low center of gravity, resulting in responsive handling and a lively driving experience.
Suspension, Drivetrain & Handling
The M‑06 chassis employs independent double wishbone suspension at all four corners, paired with front and rear friction dampers. A 3‑piece steering linkage provides direct steering feel and nimble cornering response.
Grip is tailored for the RR layout using 60D radial tires at the front and 60D super radial (hard) tires at the rear, helping maintain stability while allowing realistic rear‑drive dynamics.
