Tamiya 1/12 Renault RE-20

This kit is 30yrs old but is still one of the best, especially with the photo etch. Superb detail of a classic F1 car in era where racing was not a "video game"

Fantastic kit

Fantastic kit from Tamiya. Loads of details that represents very well the real car. Assembly went well, though sometimes the lenghts of wires and tubings had to be reajusted from what the instructions says so they may fit better. But if there's one reason that i knocked 1 star for the rating, it has to be because of the assembly of the exhausts manifolds. Because of their various curves, it's a bit of a pain in the you know where to put together. If the fit were a bit more snug, it wouldn't be as much of a hassle. But other than that, i enjoyed building this kit.
