TAMIYA 1/24 MERCEDES-BENZ 500SEC

Tamiya 1/24 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC Plastic Model Kit

The Tamiya 1/24 Mercedes-Benz 500SEC recreates the flagship luxury coupe that set the standard for its class throughout the 1980s.

Please note this is an unassembled plastic model kit requiring assembly; paints, cement and hobby tools are not included and are required to complete the model.

Mercedes-Benz has long enjoyed a leading position in the automotive world, and the 500 SEC made its debut as a top luxury coupe of its day in fall 1981. This car featured an aerodynamic two-door hardtop form with four seats and was powered by a 5-litre V8 engine capable of 231hp, good for a 225km/h top speed. The 500 SEC really was the complete package, offering performance, luxury and reliability, and setting the standard for its successors across the car market for years to come.
