About the Mercedes CLK-DTM #5 U. Alzen Warsteiner DTM 2002 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast Mercedes CLK-DTM #5 reproduces Uwe Alzen's Warsteiner-sponsored 2002 DTM entry. A sealed one-piece body carries the period touring car livery, built for a German touring car or Mercedes motorsport display.
DTM's early 2000s revival brought the series back after a hiatus, and the CLK-DTM's purpose-built silhouette barely resembled the road-going coupe it was named after, a genuinely radical departure typical of that era's touring cars.
Cast Livery Detail on the Minichamps CLK-DTM 1:43
This model's sealed zinc-alloy body holds the CLK-DTM's dramatically widened bodywork, deep front splitter, and tall rear wing as one continuous casting, tracking a race car that bore only styling cues from its road-car namesake. Warsteiner sponsor livery and the #5 roundel print with clean registration, and the fixed body construction keeps shut lines consistent across the aggressive bodywork. Weight in the hand confirms genuine zinc-alloy density even at 1:43, matching the build quality across Minichamps' DTM range.
A Revival-Era DTM Piece for Collectors
This CLK-DTM belongs in any collection tracking DTM's early-2000s comeback, a period when the series' purpose-built silhouettes pushed touring car design further from road cars than ever before. For a Mercedes motorsport collector, Uwe Alzen's Warsteiner-liveried entry adds a specific driver and sponsor story to a broader DTM revival-era collection.
