Detailed Reproduction of the McLaren Honda MP4/4

The Tamiya 89719 - 1/20 McLaren Honda MP4/4 model kit delivers a faithful small-scale version of one of Formula 1's most celebrated cars. It captures the MP4/4s streamlined aerodynamics and period detail, making it a strong choice for collectors who value historical accuracy and build quality.

1988 Season Background and Authentic Detail

The MP4/4 dominated the 1988 season and was notable in the final era before turbo regulations changed. Powered in its representation here by the V6 turbo layout, the car achieved an exceptional run of victories that this model helps to illustrate through accurate bodywork and cockpit detail.

Construction Highlights and Builder Notes

The kit arrives in Tamiya's classic black presentation box and includes a detailed cockpit, a removable body cowling that reveals the V6 turbo engine and suspension, plus two decal sheets for either Prost or Senna liveries. Builders should find the assembly rewarding, with clear parts separation for painting and display.

What tools and paints are recommended for this kit?

Can I display the engine bay with the cowling removed?

Yes, the kit features a removable body cowling so you can show the V6 turbo engine and suspension work. It is designed to be displayed either closed or with the cowling removed for interior viewing.
