Back in my college days in Beijing 20 years ago, we use to ride in those van style taxi all the time when compete in basketball with other schools, it was dirt cheap, 1.5 usd per 10km cab fare, fit 5-6 guys, this review brought back some great memories, thanks Tom.
I am original from tianjin . This van taxi was very popular in the '90s because of its size. We call it bread car. At that time, most of the families in my hometown couldn't afford personal cars. People often use the taxi to move stuff. My mom rode a bike to pick me up at primary school. when it was raining, Mom put the bike and me in the rear compartment。 My older brothers drove this car to fight with local gangsters, and the sliding door was super easy to come out and leave. Now I still remember the sound of the door, it means something would happen. 大发(dafa)means big fortune in Chinese. Tianjin DAFA TJ110 was present that Chinese self-employed businesses increased after China joined APEC in 1991.
Hey Tomley I’ve been Watching you videos for provably 2 years now and I must say I love how far your skills as a content creator have come particularly in the last 6 to 9 months. Keep up the great work mate. Cheers
I gotta admit, the exhaust battery locking latch its pretty creative, I'm just gonna wait if WPL comes out with a white version, otherwise this is a really cool model with amazing scale details.
So in the US and I've honeslty been shopping for a trx4 or something really close. I've not purchased a new rc maybe never honeslty and at 42 years old I just ordered this 🤣🤣 Tomley your truly a bad influence!
just got mine last week, i dont care if "real" hobbypeople dont want anything to do with cheap rc stuff but they are missing out! so easy to swap out the cheaper electronics for a "proper" system, not even any need to swap out the servo, just plug n play!
I thought I told you to stop showing me stuff that I like!!!!!!!!!!! Ordered one just now! Damn you Mr Tomley! 😅😅😅😅 I haven't even let the D12 Truck out of it's box yet!
Why are people so bloody rude? Of course, viewers are entitled to their opinions but there is no need for rudeness. As far as I'm concerned Mr Tomley RC is a great channel, it is one of a few "Go--to-Channels" I check before I purchase. Were these Hondas or Daihatsu's or both?
Personally Phil i think Tomley RC is one of the BEST RC channels on You Tube, Your content is Extremely good & you my friend are a 1st class presenter. I watch everything you release & also your other channels too. You have become bigger & bigger in the RC world & all I can say is keep doing what you’re doing cus you are bloody good at it ! Stay Safe 🏎 👌🏼 P.S. great yellow Taxi bus from WLToys 👍🏼 i will pay their website a visit !
Pretty awesome little van, Tomley! 😃 Looks fantastic! There's just one thing missing... A couple of checked (black and white) stickers on the sides!!! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
This one is definitely not for me but I did enjoy watching Tomley have a go with it and enjoying himself I always say if it puts a smile on your face you must be having fun and that's what matters at the end of the day ✌️
I'm your biggest fan and student js cheers have a great weekend and I'm still waiting for that new 1/18 Chevy square body mud video lifted on bigger tires if you could 🙏 thanks again TomleyRC 🏁
I am definitely getting one of these...I saw on one of their ads on facebook asking for suggestions as for another model we'd like for them to produce and I had said a van..lol..little did I know they had one in the wings already made...and here it is....My next suggestion to them is a Mini Cooper..the Old style...I'd Love to see that happen as well.
Wpl are so grate and cheap xd love my c24-1 got my 2 speed gear box a fu days ago can not wait too see what people do too theses Crawler's and drifter xd
The pronunciation "Tianjin DAFA" on 0:52 is almost right. This taxi car was produced in cooperation with Tianjin Auto company and Japan Daihatsu Auto. By the way, “DAFA” in madrine means" make a big fortune".
Awesome bro , that van looks almost the same as the one in wheels on Meals ft jackie Chan . It’s a Old movie , one of my favourite 😎 nice and very strong lol . 👊
Glad you didn’t do a header on that box test Phil ! Going to have to add to be of these to the collection. I wonder what the D22 and 32 would have been🤣
@@TomleyRC it’s not the waiting time. I need to pay VAT, that’s ok it’s not expensive. But the carrier demands $40 in handling fee for the VAT and then it becomes s lot more expensive
Love your videos and bought one off the back of this vid 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻So disappointed with hermes they left my box out on the street 2 days ago with mine and it was stolen, really hoping wpl can help me contact them as well, the photo of the box was pristine though lol.. so gutted, happy i ordered direct these guys have my thumbs up just from the response and shipping time.. cant stand hermes, second parcel they hsve done this with in a year 😠
I waited for this review. Love this thing. I normally decidet not to get another RC, since my intrests variated a bit, but that one i cant let slip tho lol im curioous how this will look among my 1:10 it's gonna be cute no doubt here hahaha

just got mine, it's my first wpl and I really didn't expect it to be as great as it is. I already want another one 🇨🇦🍻
I like that you're the English speaking King of WPL! I've searched the web and you're the best 100%. Thanks for the work you put into this hobby!

you can see the sign on the windshield. it shows the price around 20 cents per mile

Hard not to laugh at a negative review when they end it with “idiot”. Haha. I love your channel! My d42 just shipped and I can’t Wait!
I gotta admit, the exhaust battery locking latch its pretty creative, I'm just gonna wait if WPL comes out with a white version, otherwise this is a really cool model with amazing scale details.
Awesome ad placement, just as you step onto the box, for the drama.
Love this little thing.
I need one in red so I can recreate Ironhide from Transformers.
That would be cool 😎
Or white to build Ratchet.
Was Ironhide a wagon originally?
What a little piece of fun.
The mystery machine will be my first paint job.Pity you can't fit figures in there,but a small play around should fix that.We are modelers after all.
Yeah, should be able to make it work
So in the US and I've honeslty been shopping for a trx4 or something really close. I've not purchased a new rc maybe never honeslty and at 42 years old I just ordered this 🤣🤣 Tomley your truly a bad influence!
I am officially a Tomley Fan Boy now ...... you make even the most mundane "toys" interesting and fun mate ..... awesome
just got mine last week, i dont care if "real" hobbypeople dont want anything to do with cheap rc stuff but they are missing out! so easy to swap out the cheaper electronics for a "proper" system, not even any need to swap out the servo, just plug n play!
That thing is sweet! Like a zero turn taxi lol
Drift taxi???? I didn’t know it drifted🥤🍿🥤🍿🥤🍿🥤🍿
Definitely very cool for the scale guys out there!!! 👊👊👍👍
Yes… I’ve seen some crazy D12’s… hoping to see some of these converted to full on drifters
Lighting in new studio is nice and bright!
👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 Great vid. I picked up a D12 & D42.
Tom never says anything bad about the RC cars wish we had an honest review.
You clearly don't watch all my videos then. You couldn't be anymore wrong :)
Pre ordered mine after you mentioned it a few weeks ago.Looking forward to this.The d 12 was great fun,so I bought 3 of them.
Thanks
Ian
Awesome 😎
PARTY BUS!!
🥳
This thing is funny because it looks like the exact opposite of a snazzy rc!
Buy it and make a crawler with the frame of the C14 !!! 😍
That's a mental yellow peril!! Needs some Crazy Taxi stickers on the side. 👍🏻
HI PHIL WHAT A GREAT LOOKING VAN. SO WE'LL MADE AND DRIVERS NICE.. THANKS FOR POSTING SIR HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEK.🇬🇧💂✌️👍
Hello Tomley RC ! Awesome this taxi ! The crazy taxi 🤪 ! Really cool ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I thought I told you to stop showing me stuff that I like!!!!!!!!!!!
Ordered one just now! Damn you Mr Tomley! 😅😅😅😅
I haven't even let the D12 Truck out of it's box yet!
Dope I’m for sure gonna get one ……..we want ramps ( please put a ramp on ur track
New track coming soon 😎👍
I’ve got one of these on pre-order as part of their founders club.
Awesome
Perfect!👍 Thank you now I need the black track wall you have
It looks great.... but it will better if wpl make the doors functional which can be open to make it looks realistic... nice review 👌
I have 2 D12's but damn van version is epic too
allways supporting you
😎🤟
wow, really cool, can't wait to get one or 2
Such a beautiful little van, kinda want one
Why are people so bloody rude? Of course, viewers are entitled to their opinions but there is no need for rudeness. As far as I'm concerned Mr Tomley RC is a great channel, it is one of a few "Go--to-Channels" I check before I purchase.
Were these Hondas or Daihatsu's or both?
..... Unfortunately our species reverts to the schoolyard when behind an anonymous keyboard.
If you want to make a drift car, you can change the rim + tire with tamiya Mchasis or you can make a 3D print wheels, its more fun! :)
Personally Phil i think Tomley RC is one of the BEST RC channels on You Tube,
Your content is Extremely good & you my friend are a 1st class presenter.
I watch everything you release & also your other channels too.
You have become bigger & bigger in the RC world & all I can say is keep doing what you’re doing cus you are bloody good at it !
Stay Safe 🏎 👌🏼

I always say if it puts a smile on your face you must be having fun and that's what matters at the end of the day ✌️
Nice. Love this video. Thank you for sharing.
This is going to be a great speed run taxi
I'm your biggest fan and student js cheers have a great weekend and I'm still waiting for that new 1/18 Chevy square body mud video lifted on bigger tires if you could 🙏 thanks again TomleyRC 🏁
You are my favourite RUclipsr as well. You never fail to mae me laugh. Jumping on that box was epic!
Love the box test
😅

Cheers dude
WPL going crazy ❤️
WOW EPIC VIDEO TOMLEY HAHA!!!!!
I've already got a D12 1/10 & the Mini 1/16 version of this, I think the D42 is next on my list to get!
Awesome little thing that Tomley think I prefer the rascal version but both look awesome and scale, good job buddy
A scale Rascal would be cool 😎
When are manufacturers going to start putting figures in as standard.? Can't understand why they don't. Nice taxi
Cool little truck you didn't do the standard bounce test 😁 . Your new unit is class BTW.
Wah sangat keren keren banget mainan nya kk slam sukses selalu hadir menyimak bos ku semangat trus
I love it!!
cool little wpl,great review
Thanks mate
😂 Phil you should of done an epic edit where you fell and disappeared into the box.. oh these are cool a good company pair with the D12
Haha… maybe next time 😅
@@TomleyRC 😂 happy rcing mate
That's sooooò coool
I would be fitting a sound system in it and blast out some tunes whilst drifting
thank you for your video. i love it
That looks verry nice.
Very interesting! May have to pick one up.
Great stuff
Nice video, thank you!
Awesome bro , that van looks almost the same as the one in wheels on Meals ft jackie Chan . It’s a Old movie , one of my favourite 😎 nice and very strong lol . 👊
Interesting shape of your test track...hehe
Haha
while im not a fan of these car reviews(wont call them cheap like ive seen some call them), i do enjoy your enthusiasm over them.
Yah that secondary steering option is definitely scale. It would make for a great adventure out on the town.
Yes 😎
We need the d42 1/16 rc van. If and when production starts consider me as your first order
Glad you didn’t do a header on that box test Phil ! Going to have to add to be of these to the collection. I wonder what the D22 and 32 would have been🤣
Haha… tough box!
Got mine ordered phil
Nice 🥳🤟
O yeah wpl looking Sweeeet! 👌
Looks great Phil,hopefully I'll be able to pick one up reasonably soon.
Looks like great fun, transmitter looks a handy size too. 👍
Any plans to do some more speed runs with the Mojave, that thing was a beast. 💪 😎
Happy New Year Phil!!!
Happy New Year dude
Hope they also consider the Mitsubishi Delica Star Wagon.
It's Christmas everyday.... ✌🏼🤠
It’s pretty cool, if they could ship from EU I would buy one right away. Nice review as always 👍
Thanks… be good if they got an EU/UK warehouse. Although only take 2 weeks from the WPL store
@@TomleyRC it’s not the waiting time. I need to pay VAT, that’s ok it’s not expensive. But the carrier demands $40 in handling fee for the VAT and then it becomes s lot more expensive
@Tomley RC ...Couldnt say no to this one Phil, Founder Member & all that - Ordered Direct! :)
tmnt party wagon build coming my way👍
Wooopppp wooooop 1st
Saya juga akan unboxing ini
ドリフト!!!!!!👍
Actually, in the WPL website, they said that they will send you the rc in the WW2 grade box
Cool dud
Love your videos and bought one off the back of this vid 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻So disappointed with hermes they left my box out on the street 2 days ago with mine and it was stolen, really hoping wpl can help me contact them as well, the photo of the box was pristine though lol.. so gutted, happy i ordered direct these guys have my thumbs up just from the response and shipping time.. cant stand hermes, second parcel they hsve done this with in a year 😠
That’s a shame! We have a really good Hermes driver, but I have heard some horror stories
WPL has some cool models. I love your shop. Do you ever go home ? Has the family filed a missing person report yet ? : )
Yea!!!!
No bro. Box still chinese for now, it's mentioned in the description. English version being translated. 😁
Ltd Edition Chinese Version for first batch then 😅
Yeahhhh. May want to collect both haha
Yes! I want it
Now if only the toys were as strong as the box lol
I’m not gonna stand on one to test it 😅
These or similar vans used to drive around the cities here as the taxi services during the 80's. I am in Beijing. Tianjin is a nearby port city,.
Be cool to see a real one 😎
Nowadays you will see Jingbei often, not as taxi but for delivery. These cars are nicknamed breadcar or 面包车 because of their looks
Look for "tianjin dafa" or "天津 大发". Look like a carry, but actually a Daihatsu as that is what dafa means.
Hard to find these days... Rotting away in a scrap yard, covered under dust or rust
I waited for this review. Love this thing. I normally decidet not to get another RC, since my intrests variated a bit, but that one i cant let slip tho lol im curioous how this will look among my 1:10 it's gonna be cute no doubt here hahaha
the name in chinese on the box means Tianjin Daihatsu , from the late 80's to 90's , the yellow Daihatsu minivan is the most popular TAXI in china
I lived in Beijing for years and there are around 20,000 of them on the road they are everywhere 😁
I think wpl make some quality stuff for very little money.
