[@JIPPERR_1]

Watching this in 2023, you've got a timeless style Mateo. Classic stuff 👍👍

[@uncletom1971]

It's a cold and foggy morning here in Stockholm, but watching this video again made my morning. This is pure rear wheel joy, thanks Matteo.

[@Matteomeier]

Glad to hear this! Thanks Tomas! 😊👍

[@Spicymuffin]

Sooo, after watching this this video I’ve now decided to build the HB that’s been sat in its box for the past year. I am surprised at how your video makes it look well controlled though standard shocks are installed. Thanks for the top class video

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks for your nice feedback! ☺️☺️

[@Chinook969]

This guy NEEDS to win an Academy Award for his film making TALENTS ... Just AWESOME man AWESOME .. becoming a BIG FAN....

[@christianna3561]

Another great video! Those old Tamiya kits had some style! Thanks again for sharing!

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks Al! I really appreciate your nice comments! 👍😊

[@djsavada718]

Wow 12 years….awesomeness since the start of this channel!

[@robincurson2385]

I've kept my collection to 6 car's. I've two sand scorchers rough rider. lunchbox. brat and holiday bug. keep on buggying!!! look forward to more of your videos!!

[@Matteomeier]

+Robin Curson Thanks so much for your nice comment! You've a nice collection of good old legends!

[@turbo4zetec]

This is the best video of the Tamiya Holiday Buggy. You literally sold me on this and the Tamiya Sand Rover.

[@FrankygoestoHobbywood]

Ich könnte stundenlang Deine Videos anschauen, ohne daß mir langweilig wird..!

[@Matteomeier]

Frank Kathoewer Das freut mich! Danke dir für das schöne Feed Back!

[@RCShowdown]

Dem kann ich nur zustimmen ;)

[@Matteomeier]

RC Showdown Schön zu hören!

[@MauriceRCProductions]

Einfach nur genial!Echt klasse selbst zu der Zeit wo Slomo Kameras noch richtig teuer waren!

[@Matteomeier]

Maurice RC Productions Danke, ja ist enorm was sich in der kurzen Zeit technisch getan hat!

[@MauriceRCProductions]

***** 2011 konnten die meisten Kameras gerade erst full hd😂

[@RCTanksTrucks247]

Great looking kit plus looks realistic. Your videos are always top quality and something that I wish to emulate in my videos man

[@Matteomeier]

RC Tanks & Trucks 24/7 Thanks a lot for your compliment! It's not easy to keep the level high, but when we try our best it's good! And the most important thing is to have fun with!

[@rcfanaticd.garcia6393]

Muy buen video. Son 4 minutos y 16 segundos de pura diversión. ¡Y el coche es precioso!

[@Matteomeier]

Muchas gracias! 😊👍

[@azmadu]

Absolutely brilliant camrea shots and music to got with the re re Hoilday Bug. Think I need to get one now. Thanks :-)

[@otis311]

I love the DT02 chassis. Very nice video, great shots.

[@maidbloke]

What a great video. I had *countless* hours of fun with my original Holiday Buggy in the early 80s. Presume this new one is fully sealed - a trip in the water like you did would have killed my one instantly :O

[@ollep9142]

I also have the old version, now updated with an ESC and LiPo battery but otherwise all the original parts. Not much in common with the remake. This new version is much faster and better handling.

[@joker-zq5kx]

色褪せないカッコよさ

[@Matteomeier]

ありがとうございました。

[@devolutionrc8016]

Wish my DT-02 handled that well. Great video as always.

[@garbageproductions1]

Best Holiday Buggy video ever!!!!!!! Only 4mods' "Holiday Buggy rocks loco!" comes close. Those Carson tires & wheels make it look so badass!! Your other videos are awesome too. Please, please, please do videos of Monster Beetle (re-release due later this year ☺), Nova Fox, Super Hotshot, Clod Buster, and Frog. The challenge has been made😉

[@Matteomeier]

garbageproductions1 Thanks a lot! Glad you like my videos! The Monster Beetle is on the schedule for sure! But my time and money is limited....

[@SavyBajaBuster]

You better ask tamiya for sales commission, coz this vid makes me want to go out and buy a holiday buggy........ Great vid really shows off the car !!!

[@michaelthomas3262]

Wieder ein Klasse Video, macht einfach Spaß auf RC und mehr !!! ;D

[@Matteomeier]

+Michael Thomas Danke!

[@Lord.of.the.Vultures]

Definitively a great video. Makes me want to buy one also. I was wondering about the water footage. The vehicle from what I understand is not waterproof. Doesn't it risk to short the electric motor or ESC or the servo? Did you make some modifications?

[@samson1380]

Really enjoyed! Top notch slow motion!

[@Matteomeier]

IRising IPhoenix Thank you!

[@JeepsCafe]

Nice vid Matteo! I like the Holiday Buggy it's going to be my next Tamiya vehicle in 5 minutes 😄

[@Matteomeier]

Thats nice! Have fun! 👍😊

[@obatti2]

Thank you. I am able to buy the Japanese import version. I feels so good and matched the video and song are seen several times a day

[@blockaderunner74]

Great film, loved every second of it !

[@7StarsFromTheMoOn]

I love rereleases!

[@teach_ctech_c8080]

[@zdattonejones6709]

I love this buggo

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! 👍👍

[@paulb4uk]

Superb video really nicely shot and edited .

[@santogo]

Your video are great ! Thanks for sharing. This one just made me order my Holiday Buggy, it looks so fun !

[@rcBitz]

Hey man. You make the beat RC videos, love all your rerelease videos. Tamiya should use then! Awesome work and great to see these being used. Keep up the inspiring work.

[@lawnshedguy]

Another excellent video, great work!! What wheels/tyres are you using? They really suit this car.

[@cantilo]

this an absolutely amazing vehicle... and beautiful video. awesome!

[@Del350K4]

That´s the quality end of the KZbin video market, right here : )

[@Dorfstrasse]

Super gemacht .... sehr schöne Aufnahmen!

[@justme8845]

A first rate video yet again :)

[@Matteomeier]

Just Me Thanks!

[@flygon103]

thanks, this was my first rc, except I'm got the red one, I love it, but I only drive it on the pavement, I will make a vid about mine soon, after christmas, when i get the black can motor on it

[@DustyFingersRC]

Great video footage. I love this buggy and been hovering over the buy it button. What wheels do you have on this? It improves the looks further.

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! The wheels are from Carson, a german manufacturer, I don't know if they are available worldwide...

[@Matteomeier]

Here's a link: tamico.de/Carson-500900027-Reifen-Felgen-Set-All-Terrain-schwarz-DT-01-DT-02-DT-03

[@Jerven88]

First off, thanks Matteo for another great RC video, and the link to purchase these awesome tires. Just ordered them and they do send outside Germany. Was in the same mindset as you DustyFingers, considering a purchas, after watching this video and managing to accuire these same wheels it's a must have. Hope you still enjoy your Holiday Buggy, know I will once assembled. Cheers, Matteo fan in Norway ;-)

[@DiscordantVice]

Thinking about getting one of these so build and use with my 5 year old nephew. Have a LandFreeder but I think that is too much for him. Do you think a 5 year old could learn with this or should I go with rising fighter? His garden is bumpy so needs to be able to ride those bumps.

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, this one is a good RC car for beginners! 👍😊

[@tomhightway]

it s a wonderfull video,congratulation,do you speak french?because my english is bad and i have a few question for you

[@Anders1236]

Fantastic video!

[@v6hot]

Quality video I love it. I have those wheels on my street rover but they don't turn as they rub on the wish bone screws.

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! Thats strange, because the suspension of both cars is the same?!

[@v6hot]

***** yeah when the rear are tight they just rub really bad to the point of hardly moving when you put the power on. I've started to file the insides of the wheels down.

[@v6hot]

***** hi I put a video on my page v6hot and it shows ho tight the wheels are on the wish bone screws.

[@Matteomeier]

v6hot I seen your video and compare it with my Holiday Buggy, the wishbones are the same, but I have enough space on the wheels, maybe different wheels?

[@Rob_NABS]

wow. Love this. Which wheel and tyre combo do you have on there? They look way better than original

[@Matteomeier]

These are from Carson: www.carson-modelsport.com/carson_de/ersatzteile-zubehoer/rc-zubehoer/reifen-raeder/1-10-reif-felgen-set-all-terrain-schw-500900027-de.html

[@Rob_NABS]

@@Matteomeier Many thanks, I have ordered a set. So much better looking than the original yellow ones.

[@LittletinyGeorge]

@Matteomeier ok thanks! my dad has one of these (the original from like 25 years ago! lol) but I think all the electronics are shot :/ I was thinking of getting my own now as they are quite a cheap kit to buy :) any upgrades needed or not? My dads has new tyres and a black can motor

[@samhobbs6517]

Awesome video Matteo! I have this exact car in red

[@Matteomeier]

+GamingGamer01 Nice! Thank you!

[@euniquetrailadventures]

Another great video, my friend

[@Matteomeier]

eunique Thanks!

[@DutchRCPlayground]

Your videos make me want to buy and build Tamiya kits. Going to order a DT-03 soon. At my rc track they have stock Tamiya Dt-03 Fighterbuggy class.

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, this is cool! I like this stock class racing categories. The fun is in the right focus there. Not this over engineered high tech classes. Thanks for your fine feedback!

[@ShenRC]

Hi can you please tell me were did you bought the tire and wheel combo they look sweet!! Nice video!!

[@DustyFingersRC]

The are Carson Wheels

[@joeygti]

hi, what wheels and tyres are you using in this vid? they really suit the car!

[@Matt_B79]

Great vid bro! Some super sick camera angles!!

[@34mx34]

splendid vidéo ! Bravo . :o)

[@FarmakisRcManager]

Fantastic vid man,this buggy looks so nice!!!!!!!!

[@Dd_chill]

Hi Matteo! I'm about to buy this car and I'd like to know if you're running the stock 380 motor or something with more power Thanks for the great videos!!

[@Matteomeier]

I upgraded mine with a 540 motor. Glad you like my videos! 😊😊👍

[@Dd_chill]

@@Matteomeier Thanks for the info!! It is me the one who has to thank you for the best rc edits by far Don't stop dude!!! Greetings from Spain

[@Dets6]

Hi there, Love your videos. I finally gotten myself the Tamiya Holiday Buggy , you inspired me. I want to make my car fun to play exactly like yours. I bought the sports tune motor with 18T pinion. I'm building the kit soon, but before that, may i know what servo do you use and what brand&model of your radio. Hope you don't mind sharing. Wishing you happy new year! cheerS!

[@Matteomeier]

Dets6 Congrats to your new buggy! I use the Futaba 4PL, 4 channel radio. www.futaba-rc.com/systems/futk1410-4pls/index.html It offers a lot of good functions for all my models. And as servo, in last time I use waterproof servos, to get no problems in water. It's from hittec. hitecrcd.com/products/servos/waterproof-servos-2/hs-646wp-high-voltage-high-torque-analog-waterproof-servo/product

[@moraesmarcobsb]

Very nice vid bro!!!

[@Matteomeier]

Very, very nice. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@cgeyye9916]

Awesome!😍👍

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! 👍😊😊

[@MattsActionMoments]

Great Video, I will have to get one now Haha, Are they just the shocks that came with the kit ?

[@RCDRIVERSTUDIO]

Cool video :)

[@Matteomeier]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍😊

[@Dets6]

Hey there,great videos, all of em!!! Your vids have encourage me to get either the holiday buggy or the sand rover. I cant decide between these two, can you share some of your thoughts? which one is better;handling,rough use,fun. CheerS!

[@Puccazilla]

awesome Holiday vid!

[@tedmikecreazioni9313]

Hi, I have a Tamiya Holiday Buggy and I ran out of rear and front wheels but I can't find them anywhere, so could you upload me the link of the wheels you mounted? Thanks

[@markh4467]

Nice video, what wheels are they?

[@Matteomeier]

Thanks! These are from Carson Modellsport: www.carson-modelsport.com/de/produkte/carson-modelsport/zubehoer/reifenraeder-11085/1-10-reif-felgen-set-all-terrain-schw-500900027/

[@riccardo8141]

Fantastic car and beatiful video, I'll buy a HB very soon so I ask you what Kind of 17t pinion gear have you used and what module and if you may tell the product code of the motor plate. Tnx very much, ciao (italiano, vero?)

[@ViggenChico]

Awesome videos~~ I also build my holiday buggy now, and with DT-02 chassis, but I don't like the buggy tires. May I ask you what tires you use for your holiday buggy??

[@Matteomeier]

Thank you! The wheels are from Carson Modellsport www.carson-modelsport.com/de/produkte/carson-modelsport/zubehoer/reifenraeder-11085/1-10-reif-felgen-set-all-terrain-schw-500900027/

[@47coltrane]

Hi Matteomeier, welche CVA Dämpfer hast du Verbaut ? gibt ja 2 Ausführungen die Mini und kurze Ausführung ? Tolles Video übrigens =)

[@jasperbarlow2582]

I had one in the mid-eighties, I,m sure the poor little bloke who was sitting in the driving seat had a terrified look on his face every time I disconnected the quick charger, it met it,s end under a local no 87 bus due to a cack handed mate.

[@Matteomeier]

Oh man, this poor little guy....😅😅

[@ThomasZ392]

great video!!!

[@Lander76]

great vid, nice footage, how do you hold the camera and controller at the same time?

[@Matteomeier]

+Lander F Thanks! I hold the camera on the right hand and the controller on the left. Can control the pistol transmitter by one hand. Control the throttle with the forefinger, and the steering with the thumb.

[@Lander76]

Thanks for the reply, keep up the good work

[@theStirp]

wheels make a difference nice. which do you like driving more the holiday buggy or the cc-01?

[@asdfsyo]

Thanks I'm also planning to get CVA shocks and 540 motor, hope it's worth it ..

[@erzurum1983]

NICE VID hello what a motor is in the car is it the 380

[@LittletinyGeorge]

@Matteomeier I might buy one of these but I have another question, Where do the ball bearings go as I have been told its a good upgrade for my cc-01 however on my TT01D it came with ball bearings so I built them in without realising? Also I have a RS540 sport tuned motor leftover. Would that be a fast enough motor?

[@石塚健二イシヅカケンジ]

懐かしい昔走らせてました。

[@Matteomeier]

それはいいね！👍😊

[@fredtedstedman]

looks a bit like a Lotus Super 7 - with big tyres !

[@uncletom1971]

Matteo, I'm observing your bodywork with the decals, did you put that light-blue decal on the rear side of the body, instead of above the front fenders? It looks really great!

[@Matteomeier]

To be honest, this was a mistake... 😂😂

[@uncletom1971]

Really? It looks awesome.

[@gimmedatcookie48]

You make great vids and I obviously sub to u I just love tamiya and want to get my first kit for off road what should I get mannnnn

[@Joester1908]

@Matteomeier Oh ok i wasnt sure thats a sick truck i want a tamiya bronco! what do you film on?

[@Hanstrudi7]

Thanks a lot. It helped me very much

[@mikeymike3240]

Hi Matteo, would you ever consider doing a how to video on narrowing the DT02 chassis the match the width of the original holiday buggy. I've been thinking how much better the wheels look actually inside the wheel arch's. Just sorta thinking out loud. 😀

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, there are a few others actually done this. Of course it looks better! 👍

[@mikeymike3240]

Matteo's RC Movies what's the chances of you doing one properly. Most of the ones I've seen are not very thorough. I know if you do one, it would be done right. You are a very busy guy. Maybe it was wrong of me to ask. Sorry. On another note, would you know the tamiya re release part number of the subaru brat wheels please. I can't find it anywhere. Have you seen the latest tamiya rc releases, the Citroën 2 cv, WOW. the Isuzu mu and the others. Holy guacamole batman,,,,,,,, amazing rc's. I'm gonna be skint from buying these kits. 😀 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@Matteomeier]

No, surely not wrong to ask, but you're right I'm very busy and this is not on the top of my to do list. Have you seen this from Tamiya America: www.tamiyausa.com/articles/feature.php?article-id=475#.WniQPa0lx-U Yes, the Citroen and Isuzu are cool! And the Lancia...

[@camdflage]

Would love to know what wheels/tyres he used

[@howlingmaddmurdock]

Nice camera work and editing. Tamiya really should hire you to do their promotional videos. What kind of camera and software do you use?

[@rcflux]

What wheels and tires are you running and where did you get them?? Awesome buggy and nicely shot video :P

[@Rapscallion2009]

That looks to be a bit different from mine. Mine (back in about 82!) had a white plastic roof, and odd spikey tyres.

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, the re-release have a different chassis. And the tires and wheels on mine are not from the kit.

[@aswathable]

nice car.where can we get it in new york,for low price.

[@450hp202turbo]

@Matteomeier great location very good camera work . :)

[@asdfsyo]

Hello Matteo ,I have a holiday buggy and I've noticed there is some play in the suspension arms , especially in the front.Could it be why it's difficult the trim the steering perfectly ? (there's also a little play in the stock servo saver).

[@minsungsuh1403]

Hi there, I love your buggy,,,BTW where did you get the tires and wheels?

[@Matteomeier]

Minsung Suh Thanks! The tires and wheels are "Buggy Tire Wheel Set All Terrain" from Carson Modelsport. But these are not longer available. I found this new / similar product: www.carson-modelsport.com/de/produkte/zubehoer/reifenfelgenusets110112118/produktdetails.htm?sArtNr=500900134

[@kenbee01]

超カッコいいです！

[@benwoolley1138]

What tyres/wheels did you use on this holiday buggy as they look different to the stock ones?

[@Jan-ki4cf]

Wie genau hast du den Wasserdicht gemacht und welcher Motor war in dem Video drinnen? :D

[@diegobobcat]

This an amazing professional video! music is great ! GO ON MAN! really like it...I love this video! :)

[@extrahulp]

That the buggy so can drive I think that it must be with motor type 540? I have bought it for my Saint or New Year !

[@Matteomeier]

Yes, 540 motor is installed, have fun! 👍😊

[@firash25]

those shocks look like their working amazingly, what oil and piston did you use, are they tamiya shocks? seems you spent a good time making them very smooth and plush.

[@Matteomeier]

Those are Tamiya CVA oil shocks, filled with soft silicone oil (included)

[@Straightsix76]

great video and nice buggy, have you had many breakages?

[@BudgetGuyrc1967]

hi looking at this one & the sandrover they both come with 380 motors where would i find the motor mount needed to use a brushed 540 motor ? awesome video by the way thanks have fun RCing

[@Matteomeier]

Budget Guy RC You can install a 540 motor without problems. The only thing you need is a 17 tooth pinion gear. Here you can find some informations: www.tamiyausa.com/articles/feature.php?article-id=475#.VZZ65HbSqZQ

[@BudgetGuyrc1967]

***** thanks a lot

[@Matteomeier]

No, not hard, but you have to chose the right colors, Tamiya TS Spray colors with a first layer of Surface Primer. And as the best way, you have to sand the body with fine sand (600) paper before painting.
