About the Aston Martin Rapide S #100 Bez / Schubauer 24 Hours of Nurburgring 2013 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 Aston Martin Rapide S reproduces car #100, Bez and Schubauer's entry in the special endurance class at the 2013 24 Hours of Nurburgring. The sealed-body diecast carries tampo-printed livery over the Rapide S's unusual four-door GT silhouette, a genuine oddity among the race's typical two-door entries.

Most endurance racers at the Nurburgring are two-door coupes built specifically for competition, which makes a four-door Rapide S on the same entry list genuinely unusual. Aston Martin's decision to campaign its four-door GT alongside dedicated race cars turned this Rapide S into a real talking point at the 2013 24 Hours of Nurburgring, and this diecast reproduces that specific, unusual entry.

Minichamps' 1:43 Aston Martin Rapide S Casting

Sealed Body and a Four-Door Silhouette

This Rapide S arrives as a sealed, one-piece diecast body, and the real car's own identity as a road-based four-door GT makes that construction choice a natural fit. Minichamps molds the Rapide S's long roofline, four full doors, and race-modified front splitter and rear diffuser directly into the shell, preserving the silhouette that made this entry distinctive against a field of purpose-built two-door racers. The tampo-printed livery for car #100 carries Bez and Schubauer's sponsor graphics in sharp registration across the long door panels, a genuinely larger canvas than a typical two-door GT3 car offers.

Diecast Weight and Livery on a Longer Canvas

Zinc alloy construction gives the model real heft, appropriate for reproducing a car that, even in race trim, retained more of its production-based mass than a purpose-built prototype. The four-door proportions are handled correctly at this scale, with door shut lines reading as continuous, crisp grooves across the body rather than the wider gaps a genuinely opening four-door casting would require. Paint depth on the livery base color holds up well under direct light, and the wheel and tire fitment reflects the wider track and lower stance the race preparation gave the road car.

The Rapide S and Aston Martin's Nurburgring Tradition

A Special-Class Entry for Car #100

Aston Martin has long used the Nurburgring 24 Hours as a proving ground beyond its dedicated GT3 program, entering road-based and specially prepared cars in the event's broader special classes for engineering validation and brand visibility as much as outright competition. The Rapide S represented exactly that kind of entry in 2013: a production-derived four-door GT modified for endurance racing and entered in a special class alongside other cars that did not fit neatly into the standard GT3 or GT4 categories. Bez and Schubauer shared driving duties on car #100 across the grueling 24-hour distance.

A Different Story from the Vantage GT3

The result is a genuinely unusual chapter in Aston Martin's endurance racing history, distinct from the marque's more conventional Vantage GT3 program that competed in the same race. For collectors, that distinction matters: a Rapide S entry documents Aston Martin's willingness to stress-test its road-car engineering under race conditions, a different story from a purpose-built race car's competition record. Pairing this Rapide S with a Vantage GT3 from the same event gives a shelf both sides of Aston Martin's 2013 Nurburgring presence.

Collection Context

At 1:43, the Rapide S's long four-door silhouette stands out immediately next to two-door GT3 and touring cars on the same shelf, making it a natural contrast piece rather than another entry blending into a row of similar coupes. It pairs directly with a Vantage GT3 from the same 2013 race for a complete picture of Aston Martin's endurance effort that year. The sealed diecast body holds the long roofline's shape reliably over years of display, and the documented driver pairing and car number give this piece real provenance. It is a considered pick for anyone building a Nurburgring shelf that goes beyond the usual GT3 grid.
