Included in this set is everything you need to build the Ford Fiesta WRC in its gravel rally specification and fitted with Pirelli tires such as Rally Kenya 2021. Included is a tire decal sheet, a set of discs brake and calipers in the correct size, and also a full set of suspensions which increase the height of the kit, making the conversion a breeze. All parts are printed with 3D technology.

It is not the first example of an F1 driver running a rally, but it was surprising that in the current Formula 1 so professional Valtteri Bottas got permission to participate in the 2019 Arctic Rally... he must have liked it, because he repeated experiences in 2020 and 2021. Reji has reproduced in great detail the decoration of the Fiesta WRC with which the F1 driver would achieve the fifth final position of the rally. All you need to do is find the snow wheels, or at least the dirt wheels. To do this, it occurs to us that the reference KMP-TK24181, also available at SpotModel, could be worth it.

In times past it was common for a vehicle to practically dominate the market, as happened with the Renault Estafette, which was widely used in many activities and by numerous companies not only in France.

The first series had an 845 cc engine derived from the one mounted on the Renault Dauphine, and which delivered 32 CV of power, which was more than enough for the needs of the time.
