This is a 1/24 scale plastic assembly kit representing the BMW 320i Racing car, produced to recreate a competition-spec touring racer with period aerodynamic modifications and interior safety equipment.

The BMW 320i Racing car campaigned in the late 1970s and saw competition in the 1977 World Championship for Makes. The race variants featured widened bodywork, prominent spoilers and aerodynamic aids to suit circuit racing of the era. These cars were prepared from production-based models and adapted with reinforced chassis work and competition-grade safety fittings for endurance and touring events.

The injection-moulded parts include body, chassis and interior components, with a molded representation of the inline-4 DOHC engine and an interior layout that shows the roll cage and bucket seats. Water-slide style decals are provided to reproduce period stripes and sponsor logos. The finished model dimensions are given as length 203 mm, width 85 mm and height 55 mm.
