About the Audi Quattro A2 #3 S. Blomqvist / B. Cederberg Audi Sport Winners Sanyo Rally of New Zealand 1984 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: This Minichamps 1:18 diecast reproduces the #3 Audi Sport Quattro A2 driven by Stig Blomqvist to victory at the 1984 Sanyo Rally of New Zealand, part of his World Rally Championship title-winning campaign. A far-flung round on a season that confirmed Audi's four-wheel-drive dominance.
New Zealand's rally roads sit far from Audi's European home base, and a win there in 1984 shows just how completely the Quattro's advantage traveled across continents.
A Title Season Rendered Accurately
The Quattro A2's evolved bodywork carries subtle aerodynamic updates over the earlier A1, and Minichamps' diecast reflects that generational difference correctly rather than treating every Quattro livery as visually identical. The #3 Audi Sport graphics sit precisely across the doors and hood, matched to Blomqvist's specific car from that event, and the model's flared arches and rally lighting pods hold the same detail level found throughout the range. Opening doors reveal a stripped rally interior consistent with genuine Group B specification, and the diecast's weight gives the car real presence on a shelf built around 1980s rallying.
Blomqvist's World Championship Year
Stig Blomqvist won the 1984 World Rally Championship drivers' title in the Quattro, extending Audi's run of championship success into a second consecutive year against increasingly capable four-wheel-drive rivals. The Sanyo Rally of New Zealand's remote, demanding roads made it one of the more physically punishing rounds on that season's calendar. For a collection tracking the Quattro's championship-winning drivers, this New Zealand win adds Blomqvist's specific chapter to a story that already includes Mikkola and Waldegard from the same era.
