Tamiya Holiday Buggy - Build, Run and Thoughts About It
I was gifted this Holiday Buggy by the wonderful RC Elf and it is a classic looking buggy with a more modern chassis. It is truly an entry level kit but is a wonderful addition to any collection. It is a relaxing and enjoyable kit to put together and a fun little car to drive around. I hope you enjoy the video and if you get a chance to pick one of these up I totally recommend adding one to your collection!

I thought I'd seen every rc car from the well known brands like Tamiya, but this one was new to me. Looks like a Citroën 2CV converted to a buggy and it looks really cool.

Hi Addam I know the Video is a Year old I went straight for CVA shock´s and a Torque Tuned Motor because it´s not only way to slow with the 380Motor but also to fit this litte Plastic piece to get the Motor fitted to it was a real pain. Great Video none the less and keep going.

Brilliant video. Great job!

I like tamiya cause they use alot of plastics. Fantastic for running on the beach with all that salt water.

Solid build! Thanks for sharing.

Same as you, still not really keen on this buggy but after watching your video I'm now a little tempted! I think if it was released on its original chassis I'd be sold! Great video and content........you deserve way more subscribers! 🇬🇧🇬🇧

Great detailed video mate, thanks so much for sharing your tricks and experience building the buggy, it's one of my favourite Tamiya's, I have built one not so long ago and really enjoyed it, typical tamiya with its own personality😁👌.

New Subscriber here 👍🏻 Been looking at the Holiday Buggy as a potential future project and liked your thoughts and comments on the 380 vs 540. I recently put a 540 in a vintage grasshopper and been regretting my decision ever since. I will look into that 380 sport tuned 🙌🏻

I enjoyed the video on the the Holidays Buggy build. You included some important tips. Thanks for doing it. I would suggest that in the future you may want to included some brief shots of the building of each section of the car. Keep up the good work.

@IowaBudgetRCBashers 2 года назад

540 is a nice upgrade in torque and speed.

I have seen people say to hear the plastic carefully with a blow torch to change the composition of the plastic so you can paint it. Other have used etch primer.

Hi Addam, I hope you’re keeping well. Thank was a great video of the fabulous Holiday Buggy. For the iconic kit, I would be more inclined to leave it with the sports tuned 380 motor. I think the 540 would eventually damage the gearbox. Great looking kit for its era! I remember them well, back in the earlier 80’s. Anyway, keep up the great hints and tips, always a pleasure to watch your videos. Take care, keep well and all the best to you and the family 😉😊

Lacquer will stick to it but you’ve gotta scuff it up

what the heck I thought i already subscribed well now I am

@nomusicrc

I would keep the stock 380 motor until it wore out lol

Late 80’s early 90’s here also ✋I also had no interest in these back then during rere but 10 years later and my tastes have totally flipped 180 lol. With my 12 turn in mine on track, it has been ripping the tires off the bead so I have to glue them sadly. Not a fan of glue lol. Agreed, the California sticker is still on crooked on mine, I gave up. Good chill beat choice for an innocent rc bash session. Glad you went 540, so much smiles with a bit of a step up, I made sure to order the right pinion from Tamiya, luckily I checked the manual ahead of tome online which I never do! I hope you get it fixed up proper soon. I love the wah wah noise 👀
