Miniature Renault RE-30B Turbo from the 1982 Season

This Tamiya 1/20 scale Renault RE-30B Turbo kit presents a faithful miniature of Renault's 1982 Grand Prix contender. The model reflects the twin-turbo era with carefully modelled bodywork and engine cues that appeal to serious modellers.

Historical Notes and Modelling Appeal

The Renault RE-30B Turbo stood out for its turbocharged V6 configuration and period performance. This kit brings those historic features into a compact scale so hobbyists can study and display the car's engineering and lines.

Construction Experience and Finished Look

The parts are engineered for precise fit, making assembly satisfying for those comfortable with detailed kits. Once complete, the model makes a compact but striking display item for a shelf or cabinet.

  • Scale: 1/20
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Unassembled kit
  • Paint and decals: Not included
The kit models key engine features to reflect the twin-turbo V6 layout; while not a full working engine, it offers convincing visual detail for display purposes.
Basic modelling skills like careful trimming, sanding and painting are useful. Patience and a steady hand will improve the final finish.
There are limited aftermarket options for detailing in this scale; many modellers instead focus on paint, decals and subtle weathering to enhance realism.
Yes, the assembled 1/20 model is a good candidate for a small glass case to protect it from dust and handling while showing off the details.
