About the Citroen AX Super Production Circuit de Lédenon 1998 Otto 1:18
TL;DR: Otto's 1:18 resin Citroen AX Super Production reproduces the 1998 Circuit de Ledenon touring race entry as a sealed, one-piece casting. A specialized piece for collectors tracking French regional touring series rather than mainstream championship liveries.
Regional French touring series rarely get scale model attention, which makes this AX Super Production livery a genuine discovery piece rather than a repeat of a familiar championship car.
Otto's Resin Casting of the AX Race Livery
Resin construction suits a compact touring car like the AX well, holding the boxy hatchback's flat panels and sharp wheel arch extensions with crisp, well-defined edges. The body is sealed as a one-piece casting, so the entire presentation happens on the exterior: the livery graphics sit with tight registration across the doors and hood, and the panel lines read as continuous grooves rather than gaps requiring hinge clearance. Resin's lighter weight compared to diecast is apparent when handling the piece, but the tradeoff is worthwhile here, since it lets Otto hold the AX's compact proportions and race-prepared stance without the softer edges a mass-tooled diecast might show at this scale.
Placing a Regional Touring Racer in a Collection
France's regional touring series through the 1990s served as a proving ground for compact production-based race cars, running alongside the more visible national championships without the same documentation or model coverage. That relative obscurity is exactly what gives this AX its appeal to a specialist collector, someone building a shelf around lesser-known European touring history rather than the well-covered BTCC or DTM grids. Displayed beside more mainstream Citroen rally or touring entries, this piece adds genuine breadth to a French motorsport theme. At roughly 20cm for the compact hatchback body, it fits easily into a tightly packed touring car lineup without demanding extra shelf space.
