Collector and builder summary

The Tamiya 1/24 Renault 5 Turbo Kit recreates a compact but potent rally legend in scale. It is aimed at hobbyists who value accurate exterior lines and thoughtful interior detail for display-ready results.

Authentic rally history

Introduced in the early 1980s for rally competition, the Renault 5 Turbo used a turbocharged 1.4-litre inline-4 mounted at the rear to boost drive on loose surfaces. The model reflects the car's racing-derived construction and lightweight body panels that helped it contend at international rallies.

Parts and presentation

The kit's 1/24 components show the pronounced arches, cabin appointments and underside detail. Included are realistic synthetic rubber tyres and decal sheets for seat finishes and markings, with options to complete the model in black or red. A driver figure is provided to add authentic scale context.

No. The kit is moulded in unpainted plastic so builders can choose their own paint system and finish. Preparation, priming and painting are required for a display-standard model.
The kit includes realistic synthetic rubber tyres that offer a scale look and texture. Modellers who want a different tread or softness can swap them for aftermarket tyres sized for 1/24 models.
