I wasn’t intending to put the Blazer’s wheels on the G, but unfortunately the intended beadlocks don’t fit on this. Still, they don’t look bad... #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 #brushlesscc02 (at Warren Hill, Storrington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCjiT1sln-k/?igshid=1mlgjyz2woqpk

This thing is so much fun with brushless power. #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 #brushlesscc02 (at Warren Hill, Storrington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCjaA4XFZo7/?igshid=1xi9rxqs5vdvk

First run on brushless, it’s quite brisk now... #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 #brushlesscc02 (at West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB8GKN4FiXO/?igshid=5u3t9yee0yc2

Brushless motor time for the @tamiya_uk G-Class. A 13.5t is definitely overkill, but it should be quite entertaining. #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 (at West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB70ciyl1I5/?igshid=18ky5p4hghi08

The @tamiya_uk G-Class now has new, longer body posts to allow a little more clearance. Unfortunately it’s not quite enough 🧐 #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyag500 #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyagclass #tamiya #tamiyarc #rccrawler https://www.instagram.com/p/B86goDUllYD/?igshid=8rm8q88furu2

Full flex with the G’s new tyres. There’s some slight rubbing even with trimmed arches, but some longer body posts should sort that out. #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 (at Pulborough) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8vfY6Bl2Ss/?igshid=kdjzpm9ndcrj

Time for the next set of upgrades for the Tamiya CC-02 Mercedes G-Class. The standard plastic propshafts were fine with the kit motor, but with the fast brushless system installed it was time for a stainless steel CVD hop up. #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 #brushlesscc02 #cc02hopups (at West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEv-PoFliYs/?igshid=fgdew9mrqmfu

As the alloy beadlocks on the G-Class are thicker than the standard plastic wheels, some new slimmer nuts were in order. Black seems to work rather nicely. #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 #brushlesscc02 # #beadlockwheels #beadlocks (at West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDPgLUvFtJo/?igshid=iwh3wjdxs7jq

A locked rear differential and the larger, softer tyres have made the world of difference to the @tamiya_uk G-Class. This thing is so capable now. #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 (at Washington, West Sussex) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9esACNFuuS/?igshid=g15tfzjco127

Today was upgrade day for the Tamiya Mercedes G-Class. It now has full bearings, a locked rear diff, high-torque servo saver, bigger tyres and some fresh wheels. #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler (at Pulborough) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8uNygYlfOm/?igshid=57ntev9cgry7

After @darrenmoss1989 requested I bring the @tamiya_uk G-Class to the main What Car? office, it seemed rude not to let him have a go with it.... #tamiyamercedesgclass #tamiyamercedesg500 #tamiyagclass #tamiyag500 #tamiya #mercedesg500 #mercedesgclass #rccars #tamiyarc #rccrawler #tamiyacc02 #cc02 (at Twickenham) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9hqXcelOi2/?igshid=1792a325k3b3k
