Tamiya #24358 1/24 Lotus Europa Special Assembly Model Car

[Innovative mid-engined lightweight sports revives]
――In 1966, Lotus Europa adopted the epoch-making midship layout at that time, and boasted the world's top class cornering performance by taking advantage of the lightweight body and low form of the FRP body.
――Among them, the special that appeared in 1972 is the final enhanced version equipped with a 126-horsepower 1.6-liter in-line 4-cylinder DOHC engine.
--A 5-speed mission can be selected as an option, and aluminum wheels are equipped as standard.
――In addition, the body is decorated with pinstripes reminiscent of the JPS color Lotus that was active in F1 at that time, and the lower part of the side is all silver regardless of the body color.
――As a masterpiece of lightweight sports created by Colin Chapman, the founder of Lotus who loves sports cars and is known as an original idea man, he still has many fans all over the world.
