Carrera DIGITAL 132 Tanker
Item No. 30822
Another vice!
We don't usually write reviews about limited editions.
In the case of this car, however, we're making an exception. The reason: the car with item number 30822 is a new model, brand new to the market, and thus the first car of its kind that Carrera has ever included in its product range.
We're talking about the 132-scale tanker. I already discussed the tow truck recently. The cab is the same as the Wrecker, and the vehicle's appearance matches that of the tow truck in terms of its red color scheme and the styling of the body and body. The tanker body slopes downwards at the rear, giving the oil truck a streamlined appearance; Raymond Loewy would have been proud of Slottus. A nice little detail in the print is the pin-up girl on the rear of the body.
In terms of technology, it doesn't have quite as much to offer as the Wrecker: There's no light bar, but this vehicle also has a sound module integrated (which, incidentally, makes different noises than the tow truck). The vehicle weighs 150 grams, which is 2 grams lighter than its older brother. So, in a direct comparison, it should be able to keep up.
These two new models aren't for everyone, at least if you read the opinions and discussions in the club or on Freeslotter. For those who like the car, I can definitely recommend the Tanker. The cars are a real asset to the track.
