Lancia Delta Integrale 16V Safari 1/12 model kit - Italeri 4720

The Italeri 4720 Lancia Delta Integrale 16V Safari 1/12 scale model kit is a large-format model dedicated to one of the most iconic interpretations of the Lancia Delta in rallying. With a model length of 33.5 cm , this Skill 5 level kit is aimed at experienced modelers wishing to create a Delta prepared for the demanding conditions of the Safari Rally.

The Lancia Delta is inextricably linked to the history of the World Rally Championship in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The Delta HF and Integrale models enabled Lancia to win six consecutive manufacturers' titles between 1987 and 1992. On the African tracks of the Safari Rally, the cars underwent specific preparation to better cope with the long stages, the rough roads, and the flying stones. The Lancia Delta notably triumphed there in 1988 and 1989.

This Safari edition emphasizes the technical and visual elements specific to a rally car designed for challenging terrain. The kit includes new parts , wheels and rubber tires for an off-road configuration, as well as protective elements adapted to this version. The alternative mud flaps in flexible polyurethane allow you to recreate the characteristic look of a Delta tackling dusty or rocky courses.

The level of detail extends to the moving parts as well. The engine hood and rear hatch can be displayed open or closed. The front side doors open, providing access to a particularly detailed interior. The engine and its compartment are carefully reproduced to allow for an open display, while the functional suspension and steering wheels enhance the model's mechanical realism.

Italeri provides photo-etched parts and chrome elements to enhance the fine details. The accessory bag contains tubes, screws, and springs for assembling and reproducing the equipment seen on this rally-prepared model. The two Super Decal sheets, including composite parts, allow for three alternative liveries . A full-color instruction booklet is included with the kit.

Thanks to its 1/12 scale, this Lancia Delta Integrale 16V Safari is a choice piece for any collection dedicated to rally cars, Lancia, or 1980s motorsport. Its assembly requires precision and a methodical approach, particularly for fitting the opening parts, interior details, suspension, and engine compartment. In return, it offers a richly detailed reproduction, suitable for a display case or a rally-raid themed diorama project.
