I do like BTCC and JTCC so much, it was a very best touring cars of the decade, great unboxing.

[@BOABModels]

Many thanks! Totally, I have fond memories of these 90s cars.

[@BarricaG]

Great unboxing! I think Nunu really excelled in this kit

[@BOABModels]

I think so too!

[@KarlScaleModeling]

That's amazing Thomas, thanks for sharing a great unboxing 👍🏼 I really shall get into the BTCC era with my builds (not just JTCC)! There were so many amazing cars in the 90s era BTCC 😊 Looking forward to see you building this Volvo 👍🏼

[@BOABModels]

Thanks so much, Karl. I grew up with this era of cars, where my friends and I supported the car our dad drove! I can totally recommend these NUNU kits.

[@jed_cars_official]

More BTCC/Supertouring builds please 🥺

[@BOABModels]

I'd love to make some more

[@Johnrama83]

Just finished building this and was very happy with the end result, Ive started the Audi and just hope nunu release more super tourers

[@BOABModels]

I started with the Audi too. I think that's their plan - clearly someone was a fan in the '90s.

[@ellipticalsoul]

Cool kit, looking forward to seeing this one built! I'd like to get it myself and I wish Tamiya would reissue the Volvo estate, they're going for over £100 on ebay

[@BOABModels]

Cheers Nick. I totally agree with that Tamiya Volvo - they did a road version of the estate as well which I know people would buy.

[@brendanhartzer5712]

I built this kit last year and did Kelvin Burt’s version. I hope Nunu make the 1998 version soon. Also Beemax are making the BMW 320i from the 1996 BTCC as well.

[@BOABModels]

How did you get on with it? I imagine they will release the title winning car. I'd read they will bring out a few other '90s BTCC winners too.

[@brendanhartzer5712]

@@BOABModels had to assemble the rear suspension after the interior has been assembled other than that no problems

[@Sarah-JaneR32]

I have this in the stash, it does look nice though, you can get a 3D printed grill to improve the look, I won’t be though. It’s nice seeing Nunu are going the window masks route now instead of the decal type, looking forward to seeing you build this so I can see what to watch out for when building mine :) model on

[@BOABModels]

Yeah I've seen some of those grilles, it's a good option. I love the addition of window masks - painting window rubbers is probably my least favourite part of building cars.

[@richardlee1092]

Great looking kit Thomas! I still would love to build this type car but haven’t gotten around to it. For that matter building has been a bit slow lately because life can be busy sometimes.😎

[@BOABModels]

I can relate - I'm sure I've built less than I normally would have this year as life is busy. Hopefully there's a race car lined up for you soon!
