About the BMW 635 CSi E24 #1 European Touring Car Championship Jagermeister 1985 AUTOart 1:18
TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast BMW 635 CSi #1 carries the Jagermeister livery from the 1985 European Touring Car Championship, with opening doors, hood and trunk. This is a used model with a box showing traces of storage. A Group A touring car icon at upper-mid diecast pricing.
The Jagermeister-liveried 635 CSi is one of the most recognizable liveries from 1980s European touring car racing, and AUTOart's build reflects the brand's reputation for stronger detail resolution than mass-market diecast typically offers.
Opening Panels and Touring Car Detail
Pulled from its packaging, the model carries noticeable weight for a 1:18 diecast, and the doors, hood and trunk all open to reveal a stripped-down touring car interior, a roll cage structure and a straightforward dashboard rather than a road car's plush cabin. That's the correct treatment for a Group A racer, and it distinguishes this model from a street 635 CSi replica. As a used example, the panel hinges have been worked before, so it's worth checking they still hold their positions when opened. The orange, black and white Jagermeister graphics are printed with sharp registration, a detail AUTOart typically handles more precisely than entry-tier diecast brands. The outer box shows traces of storage, ordinary shelf wear on the carton itself, with the model unaffected.
ETCC Racing Context and Display Value
The European Touring Car Championship in the mid-1980s ran genuine manufacturer factory efforts, and BMW's 635 CSi was a dominant entry during that period, with the Jagermeister livery among its most visually striking sponsor liveries. Car #1 signals a top entry within that program rather than a generic backmarker. At 1:18, the 635 CSi's long coupe silhouette and period touring-car aero addenda give it real shelf presence, and it anchors well alongside other Group A touring cars from the same era, whether BMW, Ford, or Jaguar entries. AUTOart's stronger detail resolution makes this piece a natural step up for a collector moving beyond entry-level diecast into more serious touring-car racing subjects, provided the used condition and storage-marked box are acceptable.
