1/24 Audi Quattro Reissue from Tamiya - Item 24031

This Tamiya 1/24 Audi Quattro reissue preserves the authenticity of the original 24031 kit while adding updated decal artwork, a revised instruction guide and protective packaging. The result is a faithful small-scale representation that is easier to build and finish.

The Quattro's Impact on Motoring

The Audi Quattro helped redefine four-wheel drive for sport and road use. Recognisable by its pronounced wheel arches and spoilers, the car was powered by a 2,144cc inline-five engine with turbocharger and intercooler, putting out around 200 horsepower. The model echoes these distinguishing mechanical and visual cues.

Detailed Kit Contents and Build Notes

The kit recreates the turbocharged inline-5 engine, accurate suspension parts and the quattro drivetrain. Interior detailing covers seat shapes, dashboard mouldings and the gear lever. Seat pattern decals, synthetic rubber tyres with tread patterns and a driver figure are included. The instructions list four paint schemes: silver, red, white and blue.

Yes, the solid surface areas and panel lines make the kit suitable for weathering techniques such as washes, drybrushing and faded paint effects to simulate rally use.
The included decals are period correct, but aftermarket sets can offer additional sponsor logos or variations if you want a different livery or finer detail.
Clear parts are moulded separately and should be masked and painted carefully. Use gentle polishing and avoid solvent-based paints on clear plastics to reduce fogging.
Yes, many modellers add photoetched trims and upgraded parts for finer detail. Check part dimensions and fit before committing to modifications.
Yes, the kit supplies a driver figure to fit the cockpit, allowing builders to present the completed model as a rally cockpit scene.
