1/20 Fiat 131 Abarth Rally (Olio Fiat)

This model kit recreates the Olio Fiat navy blue and yellow liveried 131 Abarth, which was the WRC rally champion in 1977. The real car was an Abarth-tuned version of the Fiat 131 Mirafiori with a 215hp 2-liter engine; it was extremely lightweight thanks to extensive use of FRP and aluminum across its body. It made a rally debut in 1976 and took titles in '77, '78 and '80. This 2020 edition kit is the first re-issue for the venerable Tamiya kit in 21 years, and the first time with this new livery!
