We have to go back to 1982 to find the moment when Tamiya launched the first edition of its Mercedes-Benz 500 SEC kit, a luxury coupe equipped with a powerful 4,973 cc V8 engine capable of generating up to 231 hp at 4.750 rpm, allowing the 500 SEC, with its more than 1.600 kg of weight and almost 5 m of length, to reach a maximum speed of 225 km/h. Now, after many years, this kit is available again
with hardly any changes compared to the original reference, although with
updated decals and instruction manual. The kit is characterised by faithfully reproducing the lines of the original car, including its chassis and front engine, easily accessible thanks to its
removable hood. Inside, its luxurious finish with wooden inserts can be easily reproduced thanks to the decals, which incorporate these motifs, as well as the pattern of the upholstery for the seats.
