About the Ford Capri RS 3100 #31 J. Mass Norisring DRM 1975 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Ford Capri RS 3100 #31 carries Jochen Mass's 1975 Norisring DRM livery, with opening doors, hood and trunk. This is a used model; the box shows traces of storage, the casting itself intact. A wide-arched Group touring car legend.
The RS 3100's flared arches and deep front spoiler turned a road-going Capri shape into one of 1970s European touring car racing's most aggressive silhouettes.
Minichamps' Diecast Build of the RS 3100
The zinc alloy body carries real weight, and the doors, hood and trunk all open, revealing the stripped racing cabin and roll cage that separated this Capri from any street version. Panels settle where released rather than swinging loose. Racing liveries like this one depend on precise decal registration for sponsor logos and the race number, and this casting holds those graphics sharp against the body color rather than blurred or misaligned. This is a used model, and the box shows traces of storage; the casting itself carries no separate condition note, so a direct inspection on arrival is the right way to judge it. The widened fenders needed to cover the racing tires read clearly at this scale, the defining visual trait of the RS 3100's competition specification.
Jochen Mass and the German Touring Car Scene
Jochen Mass, a driver who would go on to a lengthy Formula 1 and sports car career, campaigned this Capri in Germany's Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft during the mid-1970s, a series that showcased some of the most visually extreme touring cars of the decade. The Norisring, a street circuit run through Nuremberg, added a demanding backdrop to a car already stretched to its aerodynamic limits.
Anchoring a 1970s Touring Car Display
This model works well alongside other Group racing Capris and period touring cars, where the shared wide-body aesthetic of the era ties a display together.
