Renault 5 Turbo Rally Monte Carlo 1981 - Detailed 1/24 Collector Model

The Renault 5 Turbo made a notable impact at the 1981 Monte Carlo Rally. Fitted with a mid-mounted 250hp 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, its layout improved weight distribution and helped it take on 4WD rivals like the Audi Quattro in icy conditions.

Model features and build quality

This Tamiya 1/24 kit reproduces the Renault 5 Turbo's distinctive silhouette with care. The assembly gives a realistic cockpit finish and includes synthetic rubber slick tires for authentic scale appearance. High quality decals are supplied to recreate the original rally livery accurately, making this kit a strong display candidate for collectors.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Material: Plastic
  • Tires: Synthetic rubber slicks
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Decals: Included
The kit is best suited to those with some modelling experience. It needs careful trimming, gluing and painting to reach the level of finish collectors expect.
Use hobby acrylics or enamels with primer for the plastic parts. Fine brushes or an airbrush, hobby knife, sanding sticks and plastic cement are recommended for best results.
Soak decals briefly, slide into position on gloss-coated surfaces, use decal setting solution to conform to panel lines, then seal with a clear coat once fully dry.
