1:24 Beemax 24038 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 4x4 Type 953 No.176 1984 Paris-Dakar Winner - German Rally Car Plastic Model kit

A Porsche 911 conquering the gruelling desert stages of Paris-Dakar? In 1984, Porsche proved that its legendary sports car was capable of far more than racing on tarmac. With the Beemax 24038 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 4x4 Type 953, you can recreate the remarkable rally car in which René Metge and Dominique Lemoyne won the famous 1984 Paris-Dakar Rally. This detailed plastic model kit in 1:24 scale represents the iconic number 176 Porsche, complete with its distinctive blue and white racing colours, raised ground clearance and rugged rally equipment. A fascinating model for enthusiasts of classic Porsches and historic rally cars.

The Porsche 953 was specially developed to withstand the demanding conditions of the Paris-Dakar Rally. Based on the Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2, the vehicle received an advanced four-wheel-drive system, modified suspension, increased ground clearance and equipment designed for long-distance off-road competition. Its reliable 3.2-litre flat-six engine provided the performance needed to tackle the challenging desert stages. Porsche entered three specially prepared 911s in the 1984 rally. René Metge and Dominique Lemoyne secured overall victory in car number 176, while the other two Porsches also reached the finish. This historic achievement marked an important chapter in the development of Porsche's four-wheel-drive technology.

Beemax has carefully recreated this distinctive rally version, paying particular attention to the characteristic bodywork, raised suspension and specialised desert-rally equipment. The model features a detailed chassis with accurately reproduced front and rear suspension, components of the engine underside and a realistic rally cockpit with safety roll cage and additional equipment. Rubber tyres give the Porsche its rugged off-road appearance, while the included decals reproduce the historical rally markings. The kit also contains painting masks to assist with accurate finishing. At 1:24 scale, there is plenty of opportunity to highlight the technical details, recreate the distinctive racing colours and apply subtle weathering inspired by a demanding desert rally. Display the completed Porsche as a standalone model or incorporate it into a diorama featuring sand, rocks and a characteristic desert landscape.
