About the BMW M235i Team Scheid #301 Partl / Rebhan 24 Hours of Nurburgring 2014 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast BMW M235i reproduces Team Scheid's #301 entry from the 2014 Nurburgring 24 Hours, driven by Partl and Rebhan, as a sealed one-piece body with sharply printed race livery. A genuine One-Make Cup competitor from Germany's toughest endurance event.
The Nurburgring 24 Hours mixes GT3 factory efforts with a dense field of one-make cup cars, and it is in that crowded middle of the field that the BMW M235i Racing Cup made its name. This 1:43 replica reproduces Team Scheid's #301 car exactly as Partl and Rebhan drove it in 2014, sponsor decals and all.
The M235i Racing Cup at the Nurburgring 24 Hours
A One-Make Cup Car Built for Endurance Racing
BMW built the M235i Racing as a customer racing car for its own one-make cup series, a class designed to give privateer teams an affordable, closely matched way onto the grid without the budget a full GT3 program demands. That same car found a natural home in the Nurburgring 24 Hours, an event famous for mixing factory GT3 efforts with dozens of production-based cup and touring cars sharing the same Nordschleife-based combined circuit. Team Scheid entering car #301 in 2014 put this M235i into exactly that crowded, competitive middle of the field, where reliability over 24 hours often matters as much as outright pace.
Partl and Rebhan Behind the Wheel
Endurance racing at this level depends on a driver pairing that can trade stints reliably through day and night without losing time to mistakes, and Partl and Rebhan sharing car #301 reflects that same practical, team-oriented approach that defines cup racing more broadly. Rather than a single headline driver chasing personal glory, one-make cup entries like this one succeed through consistent, mistake-free stints across a driver lineup, which is part of why the class has such a strong following among endurance racing purists who value reliability over headline speed. Minichamps documenting that specific pairing on the model matters to anyone tracking this particular entry's history.
Minichamps' Sealed Casting at 1:43
A One-Piece Race Body Holding a Complex Livery
Race liveries carry far more visual information than a road car's paint job, sponsor logos, class markings, and a large race number all competing for space across the same panels, and a sealed one-piece body actually helps here by letting those graphics run continuously across what would otherwise be a door shut line. Minichamps casts this M235i as a single shell rather than one with opening doors, standard practice at 1:43 where working hinges are impractical, and that construction keeps every decal boundary crisp rather than interrupted. The zinc-alloy body carries real weight in the hand, a small marker of genuine diecast quality.
Tampo Printing and the Numbers That Matter
The #301 identifier, the Team Scheid branding, and any class or sponsor decals are applied through tampo printing directly onto the casting rather than as separate transfers, which keeps the graphics flat and free of the raised edges that lower-quality decals eventually show. On a livery this detailed, registration accuracy, whether the number sits exactly where it did on the real car and whether sponsor logos stay legible at this scale, is the clearest way to judge whether Minichamps did the specific research this entry deserves rather than applying a generic cup-car template.
Where a Cup Car Fits Among Road-Going Bentleys and Fords
A race-liveried M235i brings genuine variety to a shelf otherwise built around road cars, giving a collector a documented competition entry rather than another street trim to compare against its siblings. Nurburgring 24 Hours entries also tend to interest collectors well beyond BMW specialists, since the event's mixed field and brutal 24-hour format have a following that crosses marque loyalties entirely. At 1:43, this cup car occupies the same modest footprint as any road-going model in the range, making it easy to slot a motorsport piece into an otherwise street-focused display without needing to clear extra shelf space. For anyone documenting a specific team or a specific year's Nurburgring entry, this is the accurate way to do it.
