Scale Replica: 1/24 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2000 Turbo (Hasegawa 20526)

The Hasegawa 20526 1/24 Mitsubishi Lancer EX 2000 Turbo faithfully represents the car campaigned in the 1981 ERC Hunsruck Rally E. The model captures the period proportions and rally-ready appearance of the original, making it suitable for display or historical model layouts.

Detailing and Kit Fit

Parts show crisp moulding and the kit supplies decals to replicate the authentic livery. Clean fit and accurate body lines let modellers concentrate on paintwork and weathering to bring out the car's rally character.

Historical Context for Collectors

The Lancer EX 2000 Turbo is a notable example of early turbocharged rally machinery. This kit stands as a compact tribute to that era and complements collections that focus on classic rally competitors.

Does the kit include alternative decal options?

The kit includes the primary rally livery decals as supplied by Hasegawa. For alternate schemes you may need to source aftermarket decal sets or create custom transfers.

What techniques improve authentic weathering?

Light washes, dry brushing and subtle chipping around wheel arches and lower panels help simulate rally wear. Test techniques on scrap parts before applying to the model.

How should finished models be stored to avoid damage?

Keep completed models away from prolonged sunlight and high humidity. A display case or sealed cabinet will reduce dust and protect decals and paint over time.
