Hasegawa 1/24 scale Sauber Mercedes C9 test car

The Sauber Mercedes C9 is a classic of late 1980s endurance racing, noted for its performance at the 1989 24 Hours of Le Mans. This Hasegawa kit reproduces the test car form in 1/24 scale, offering a faithful interpretation of the period racer.

Historical notes and modeller interest

The original C9 was equipped with a twin-turbo V8 which provided impressive track performance. Model builders will find the kit useful for studying aerodynamic surfaces and detailing techniques relevant to historic prototype cars.

Finish quality and display considerations

With precise moulding and decals supplied, the kit supports a high-quality finish when constructed carefully. The final model suits display cabinets or themed collections of classic endurance racers.

Yes, the kit is designed for typical modelling paints. Use a primer, then build up thin layers of enamel or acrylic to match the original race finish.
The kit includes moulded wheels and tyres as part of the standard parts tree; for more realism consider aftermarket tyres or painting techniques to enhance texture.
