About the BMW M235i Team Rent2drive #304 Ackermann / Wishkirchen 24 Hours of Nurburgring 2015 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 BMW M235i captures Team Rent2drive's #304 car, driven by Ackermann and Wishkirchen at the 2015 Nürburgring 24 Hours, in sealed zinc-alloy diecast. The cup-class livery, tampo-printed numbers, and correct BMW M235i Racing Cup wheel spec make it a grassroots-class companion to the race's GT3 headliners.

Not every Nürburgring 24 Hours entry chases outright victory. The BMW M235i Racing Cup filled the field with amateur and gentleman-driver teams running identical machinery, and Rent2drive's #304 car was one of dozens working through the Nordschleife's 25-kilometer lap on pure consistency rather than raw pace.

Minichamps BMW M235i 1:43 Cup Livery and Build

One-Piece Casting for a One-Make Racer

The M235i Racing Cup ran to a strict one-make format, so every car on the grid shared the same chassis and bodywork, and what separated one entry from another was livery and number alone. Minichamps casts this model as a sealed zinc-alloy shell, the standard build at 1:43 where a fixed body keeps costs down without sacrificing the surface detail a collector actually inspects. The touring-car proportions read correctly, a compact coupe silhouette with subtle cup-spec add-ons rather than the flared arches of a full GT3 car, and the metal casting holds its shape and finish across years of display without the warping a lighter plastic body risks.

Number 304 and Sponsor Detail

Because the M235i Cup cars were mechanically identical, Minichamps' job here is almost entirely about the livery, and it delivers on that front. The #304 graphics for Rent2drive read cleanly at the door panels and roofline, tampo-printed rather than applied as decals that can lift or silver with age, and the sponsor blocks stay legible under a display lamp. The wheel design matches the one-make spec used across the Cup grid, with a five-spoke pattern and correct offset, and the ride height sits appropriately low for a car built to race rather than commute. Small details, but they are the entire story on a car this uniform.

The M235i Racing Cup and the Nürburgring 24 Hours

A Feeder Class Built for the Nordschleife

BMW built the M235i Racing Cup as an accessible entry point into serious circuit racing, a spec series where drivers competed on skill rather than budget-driven equipment differences. Running it as part of the Nürburgring 24 Hours field let amateur and semi-professional teams share a race weekend with the GT3 factory efforts, completing laps of the same brutal 25-kilometer combined circuit under the same weather and traffic conditions. That shared billing is part of what makes the race famous: a spec-class BMW and a factory GT3 car cross the same start-finish line.

Ackermann, Wishkirchen, and Team Rent2drive

Team Rent2drive fielded the #304 car with Ackermann and Wishkirchen sharing driving duties, a typical arrangement for the Cup class where endurance events call for multiple drivers across the 24-hour format. Results in this class are measured differently than at the front of the field, consistency, clean stints, and reliability count for more than outright pace. A model built around this exact entry gives a collector a specific, verifiable piece of Nürburgring history rather than a generic livery applied to a stock casting.

Building a Complete Nürburgring 24 Hours Grid

This M235i works best as part of a broader Nürburgring 24 Hours collection rather than as a standalone centerpiece. At 1:43, a full field of GT3, Cup, and touring-class entries fits on a single shelf in a way a larger scale never could, and this car fills the grassroots end of that lineup honestly. Checking accuracy here is simple: compare the number placement, sponsor block layout, and wheel offset against period photos of car #304, since the chassis itself is shared across the whole Cup field. Pair it with other one-make Cup entries from the same era, or set it alongside the race's GT3 headliners to show the full spread of what the Nürburgring 24 Hours actually fields each year. It is not a hero piece, and it doesn't pretend to be one.
