Tamiya 57865 Sand Rover RTR Buggy (DT-02) 1/10 Off-Road Classic  [57865]

Classic Sand Rover Rebuilt for Modern Trails

The Tamiya 57865 Sand Rover brings a familiar silhouette back to life with practical upgrades for everyday off-road use. Built on the DT-02 chassis, this ready-to-run buggy blends nostalgic styling with straightforward mechanics for drivers who want fun without fuss. The 2WD drivetrain and independent double wishbone suspension deliver predictable handling across mixed terrain, making it suitable for new pilots and experienced hobbyists alike.

Heritage Styling with Practical Upgrades

The Sand Rover keeps its vintage beach buggy lines while adding contemporary features that improve usability. The pre-mounted 2-channel radio operates on 2.4GHz to cut down on interference, so you get clean control when running near other models. That simplicity helps you focus on driving rather than troubleshooting signals.

Built for Dependable Trail Performance

The DT-02 chassis is favoured for its resilience and low maintenance requirements. With a gear-driven 2WD layout and friction dampers, the Sand Rover offers steady traction and composure over bumps. The ABS plastic body holds up to knocks and the painted driver figure helps sell the retro look while keeping the model robust for regular use.

For hobbyists who want a nostalgic look with dependable mechanics, the Tamiya Sand Rover is a versatile pick. Its easy serviceability and stable drivetrain make it a solid platform for learning and light upgrades.
