Tamiya 84227 Renault 5 Turbo Rally 1/12 M-05Ra Kit  [84227]

Heritage rally icon brought to scale

The Tamiya 84227 celebrates the Renault 5 Turbo with a detailed 1/12 scale R/C kit. Crafted to capture the car's distinctive profile, this version on the M-05Ra chassis adds higher ride height and more suspension travel so you can tackle smooth tracks and hard-packed dirt.

Rally-ready M-05Ra underpinnings

The M-05Ra modifies the familiar M-05 platform for rally use, increasing suspension stroke and clearance. The compact 210mm wheelbase improves agility, making it easier to flick the car through tight bends and technical layouts.

Durable polycarbonate and included wheels

Included is a polycarbonate body shell faithful to the Renault 5 Turbo form. The kit also contains matte gold plated wheels as a bonus, with rally block tires fitted to provide stable traction on varied surfaces.

Accessible motor and finishing requirements

A 540-type brushed motor is supplied for dependable, easy-to-manage power. To complete the model you will need a 2-channel radio system with servos, a 6-cell battery and a charger, along with paint supplies for the body.

The Tamiya 84227 Renault 5 Turbo Rally kit is a good pick for hobbyists who like classic rally models with room to tune suspension and handling. It suits both display and spirited club running.
