This 1/24 scale plastic assembly kit recreates the BMW 320i Racing car, modelled to reflect a competition-spec touring racer complete with period aerodynamic modifications and interior safety equipment.

The BMW 320i Racing campaign in the late 1970s included entries in the 1977 World Championship for Makes. Race-prepared variants featured widened bodywork, prominent spoilers and aerodynamic aids adapted from production cars, with reinforced chassis work and competition-grade safety fittings for circuit events.

Model description and build notes: The kit reproduces the BMW 320i Racing silhouette with pronounced overfenders, front and rear aerodynamic elements, and a separate rear wing. Injection-moulded parts cover body, chassis and interior, with a molded representation of the inline-4 DOHC engine and an interior layout showing the roll cage and bucket seats. Water-slide decals are provided to match period stripes and sponsor logos. Finished model dimensions are length 203 mm, width 85 mm and height 55 mm.

A faithful 1/24 representation of a late-1970s BMW 320i Racing car, ideal for builders seeking period competition detail and display realism.
