About the BMW M1 Procar #27 BMW Motorsport A. Jones Procar Series 1979 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast BMW M1 Procar #27 reproduces Alan Jones's BMW Motorsport car from the 1979 Procar Series, the identical-spec support championship that put F1 drivers behind the wheel of the M1 alongside dedicated sports car specialists.

The Procar Series ran for only two seasons before folding, which gives every surviving M1 livery from this brief window a specific, well-defined historical footprint rather than an open-ended production run to track.

Recreating a One-Make Series Livery at 1:18

Because every M1 Procar entry shared the same chassis and mechanical specification, differentiation in this series came entirely from livery and driver, which makes accurate paint and decal work the single most important factor in a good Procar replica. Minichamps' 1:18 build renders the M1's wide arches and low, wedge-shaped nose with real definition, and the diecast body gives the model appropriate heft for a car whose actual mechanical layout, a mid-engine GT design, set it apart from BMW's more conventional road cars of the era.

A Compact but Significant Racing Chapter

Alan Jones went on to win the 1980 Formula 1 championship with Williams, which adds retrospective interest to any of his pre-title racing history, including this Procar entry. The M1 Procar Series itself remains a distinctive footnote in motorsport history, a brief experiment in identical-spec racing that briefly turned F1 stars into direct GT rivals. This model suits a collector building a BMW Motorsport timeline or tracking Jones's career before his championship year, and its finite production window makes completing a Procar-era set a genuinely achievable collecting goal.
