1/24 Italeri - Mercedes 450 SLC Rally Bandama 1979

The 1/24 Italeri Mercedes 450 SLC Rally Bandama 1979 kit replicates the luxurious yet rugged coupé that took on the gruelling Bandama Rally in the late 1970s. Built by Mercedes-Benz for endurance rallying, the 450 SLC featured a powerful V8 engine, durable construction, and rally modifications that made it a surprising contender in one of Africa's toughest off-road events.

Features:

• Faithfully moulded bodywork with period-correct rally modifications
• Detailed interior including roll cage, rally instrumentation, and racing seats
• Realistic undercarriage with rally-spec suspension and drivetrain
• Optional extras such as roof-mounted spare tyres and spotlights
• Decals for the authentic 1979 Rally Bandama livery, including sponsor markings

Ideal for modellers interested in historic endurance rallying, Mercedes motorsport history, and unique competition vehicles outside the typical WRC scene.
