This is the Tamiya 1/24 Renault 5 Turbo Plastic Model Kit [24368]
With the new, full-size Renault 5 coming back as a fully electric car in 2024, the Tamiya 1/24 scale model comes back as a Limited Production run re-issue with updated decals and instruction manual.
The Renault 5 Turbo made its debut in 1980. Based upon the Renault 5, it was developed for global rally races. The 1.4-liter inline-4 turbo engine capable of 160hp was equipped at the rear instead of seats, and lightweight aluminum and FRP panels were employed. This car caught people’s eye with its powerful form, bulging over fenders and sumptuous interior!
The Renault 5 Turbo was a version of the popular Renault 5 which was specially developed with an eye on rallying. This sporty car makes a triumphant comeback in Tamiya 1/24 scale for the first time in 25 years.
Bulging overfenders give the body a seriously sporty look.
