Nunu Porsche 911 SC RS Rally Car

Recommended Posts


For you all to inspect , a classic Porsche 911 , this time an SC RS Group B rally car from 1985 . This is a Nunu kit ( always makes me smile Nunu …. ) and I was expecting the usual high quality and engineered standards I have come to expect from this stable of manufacturers . However , as I have discussed in the WIP I did with the build , the rear of the car just doesn’t fit properly . I won’t dwell on the problems here though as the majority of the kit is easy to build and well detailed . I used a Reji decal kit to create the car driven by legendary Irish driver Billy Coleman on the 1985 Circuit of Ireland Rally , in full Rothmans colour scheme . Thanks to @galaxyg for kindly providing the Cibie spotlights

Wasn't that the the machine in the Telly-tubbies?

 

My kids are young enough to have watched them as small children ! :)

 

Cheers,

Alan.

I think it maybe was . I just think the word Nunu is an amusing name for a model kit company !

That has come up really well Gary. I know the hassles you had with its back guards & bumper but it is not obvious & does not detract from the overall effect of it, that being "Blooming Marvellous" 👍

Steve.

Thanks very much  , Steve

Lovely build hope you don't mind but here's some sounds to go with her...

 

Great! It takes me back to the days when I was a Rally Marshal! Only 40 years ago when I was 35!

Hi Gary

i noticed your reply to Deanali regarding his Pond Metro, that you wanted to see a Rothmans Metro.  
I have built this ( plus the David Llewelyn Circuit of Ireland Metro and Pond Metro). Unfortunately being new to this I do not know how to post 

photos on the site. Are we allowed to exchange Email addresses. I don’t want to break any rules but I can send you pictures by email if we can.

I only have an iPad currently but am getting a box computer soon so hope to be able to send photos from that once I learn how to post them on Britmodeller

Forgive me for being untechnical about this , but if you go onto the very top of the screen and click on the 3 bars on  the top left corner it brings up the notifications and on there is a message envelope . Use that to message me . 

  There's always people asking for photo posting advice , which can be found in the FAQ section on the home page . I use Flikr if that helps a bit .
