About the BMW 2800 CS E9 #49 Team Schnitzer G. Herzog / H. Heyer 24 Hours of Spa 1972 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #49 Team Schnitzer BMW 2800 CS E9, driven by G. Herzog and H. Heyer at the 1972 24 Hours of Spa. Diecast construction with the Schnitzer livery suits a Group Racing Historic display built around endurance touring car racing.

Spa's 24 hours demanded something different from the Nürburgring's sprint format, and Team Schnitzer brought the 2800 CS's elegant coupe body to that endurance test as well.

Minichamps' Diecast Build on This Spa Entry

The E9 coupe's long roofline is reproduced in weighted zinc-alloy diecast with the Schnitzer livery applied in sharp tampo print, and doors open onto a cabin fitted with a roll cage and racing seats correct for an endurance-spec touring car. The #49 number and team graphics carry the same period accuracy Minichamps applies across its historic motorsport range, and wheel and tire proportions match the wider racing rubber the car would have run at Spa.

Team Schnitzer's Endurance Effort with the 2800 CS

Endurance racing asked different questions of a touring car than a sprint event, and Team Schnitzer's 2800 CS program addressed both, running at Spa's 24-hour format as well as shorter sprint races the same season. G. Herzog and H. Heyer crewed this #49 entry as part of that broader push, building the reliability record that helped cement Schnitzer's standing as one of BMW's most consistent motorsport partners of the era.

Building a Multi-Event Schnitzer Display

Paired with the #2 Schnitzer 2800 CS from the same season's Nürburgring win, this Spa entry lets a collector track the team's 1972 campaign across two very different racing formats.
