Nice clean build! Is this Tamiya's recently re-released kit? I would be very interested in getting a street version of this kit, if it comes back out.

RonCla and Kaho, thanks for visiting !
Kaho, it's not reissue, it's the "original". Too difficult to find..
Best regards !

Re: Volvo 850 BTCC Estate Tamiya

Nice build, I remember the 'hearse' racing in the BTCC when it was pretty exciting racing. It was a strange choice by Volvo and I don't know if it worked as a marketing exercise, I don't know if it won any races? It must be the only estate car to be run in competition by a 'works' entry. Maybe they thought it could take a few shunts up the rear and still continue, as banger racing was very much the norm.
Tamiya need to get their act together and release some new competition cars. It's a bit of a joke now from a premier model manufacturer.

Re: Volvo 850 BTCC Estate Tamiya

Thanks my friends for the visit and comments ! Kaj45rpm, i agree with you, fully. The 850 estate never won a race, but had a good performance.
Best regards !
