TAMIYA 1/24 SUBARU IMPREZA WRC MONTE CARLO 2005

Tamiya 1/24 Subaru Impreza WRC Monte Carlo 2005 Plastic Model Kit

The Tamiya 1/24 Subaru Impreza WRC Monte Carlo 2005 recreates Petter Solberg's tarmac-spec rally car from the season-opening round of the 2005 World Rally Championship.

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.

For the 2005 WRC Monte Carlo Rally, the Subaru team entered the upgraded Subaru Impreza as used in the latter half of the 2004 season. Despite suffering brake troubles, 2003 champion Petter Solberg was able to keep up with the leaders after the first two days. On the final day he recorded the fastest times in the first two stages to climb up to third place, before being forced to retire after a heavy crash in the snow. Although unlucky in the first race of the season, Solberg and the Subaru team were able to quickly forget the disappointment of Monte Carlo, taking victory in round 2 in Sweden, proving Solberg and the Impreza have what it takes to win the WRC crown back.
