Reissue Spotlight - Tamiya 24031 1/24 Audi Quattro

The Tamiya 1/24 Audi Quattro kit returns as an updated reissue, faithful to the original Item 24031. This release adds fresh decal sheets, a clearer instruction manual, and new packaging while staying true to the car's period styling and detail.

How the Quattro Changed Rally and Road Cars

The Audi Quattro moved four-wheel drive into competitive and high performance road use. Recognisable for its flared arches and aerodynamic spoilers, the real car used a 2,144cc inline-five engine with turbocharger and intercooler producing about 200 horsepower. The scale model captures the character of that engineering milestone.

Build Overview and Key Model Details

At 1/24 scale, the kit reproduces the inline-5 turbo layout, suspension components and the quattro drive train. Interior fittings include shaped seats, a detailed dash and shift lever. Decals cover seat patterns, and the kit supplies synthetic rubber tyres with realistic treads plus a driver figure. Assembly notes present four suggested paint options: silver, red, white and blue.

This 1/24 kit is best for hobbyists with some modelling experience. Parts require careful trimming, fitting and painting - beginners can complete it but should allow extra time for practice.
Use model-specific acrylic or enamel paints for a durable finish and standard plastic model cement for assembly. Masking tape helps with multi-colour schemes and decals set better with a decal solution.
Tamiya often supplies replacement parts through hobby shops or official channels. For small trims or broken detail pieces, aftermarket suppliers may offer compatible components.
Yes, the detailed 1/24 build is primarily a display model. It is not designed for running as an RC vehicle but looks great on a shelf or diorama base.
