About the Audi Quattro A2 #4 W. Rohrl / C. Geistdorfer Rally de Portugal 1984 Sun Star 1:18
TL;DR: Sun Star's 1:18 diecast Audi Quattro A2 reproduces the #4 Rohrl/Geistdorfer entry from the 1984 Rally de Portugal, with opening doors, hood and trunk on this used example. The box shows traces of storage; the casting is intact. A genuine Group B icon for a rally shelf.
Walter Rohrl's partnership with the Quattro helped define Group B's early years, and Sun Star's diecast puts that specific Portuguese rally livery in front of collectors decades later.
Diecast Detail on a Documented Rally Livery
The zinc alloy body carries real weight in the hand, and Sun Star tools the Quattro's boxy, flared wheel arches with tight, consistent panel gaps despite the doors, hood and trunk all opening on this example. Lifting the hood exposes the layout of Audi's turbocharged inline-five, the engine that helped pioneer four-wheel-drive rallying, while the trunk reveals rally-spec equipment typical of the era's homologation specials. The #4 livery correct to the 1984 Rally de Portugal is reproduced with clean decal registration, including sponsor graphics and the correct competition numbering for Rohrl and co-driver Geistdorfer. Doors operate with genuine mechanical resistance on this piece, useful for posing the model convincingly on a display shelf. As a used example, the box shows traces of storage, wear that affects only the packaging.
Audi's Quattro and the Birth of 4WD Rallying
The Quattro proved that permanent four-wheel drive could transform rally performance, and Audi's factory team, with drivers like Walter Rohrl, used that advantage to reshape the sport during Group B's brief but legendary era. The 1984 season saw fierce competition between Audi, Lancia, and other manufacturers pushing technical boundaries that would never again be permitted after Group B's cancellation. For a Group B or Audi motorsport display, this specific Rally de Portugal livery documents a genuine moment in that technical revolution, giving the piece historical weight well beyond its shelf appeal.
