Scale and Authenticity

This 1/18 scale diecast model replicates the BMW M1 #44 driven by Markus Hottinger for GS Team Marko in the 1979 Procar Championship. It is an officially licensed product limited to 300 pieces worldwide and arrives in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging. The model features true-to-scale detail throughout its diecast metal and plastic construction.

Collector Focus

The piece suits adult collectors and hobby enthusiasts who value motorsport history and limited-run accuracy. It includes a roll cage, steerable wheels, real rubber tires and a detailed interior and exterior with applied decals. Buyers who want opening doors, bonnet or boot access should look elsewhere because this model has no moving panels.

Display Durability

The diecast metal body provides a substantial feel and stable centre of gravity for long-term shelf display. Fixed panels eliminate hinge wear and alignment drift over time. Rubber tyres resist flat-spotting better than plastic alternatives when the model remains stationary for extended periods.

Questions about this item

What display space do I need for the 9.5-inch length and 4-inch width of this 1/18 scale model?

The model measures approximately 9.5 inches long, 4 inches wide and 2.5 inches high, so allow at least that footprint on a shelf or in a cabinet.

Will the steerable front wheels and fixed roll cage survive handling alongside older diecast cars that have opening doors?

This model has steerable wheels and a moulded roll cage but no opening parts, so it is more robust than models with hinged doors or bonnets.

How can I verify the limited-edition status after unboxing?

The model is a worldwide run of 300 pieces and carries official licensing; the packaging and model markings confirm the edition number.
