About the Ford Capri RS2600 Ford Tuning Siegen #6 Weiss / K. Ludwig 6 Hours Nurburgring 1973 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: This 1:18 Minichamps diecast reproduces the #6 Ford Tuning Siegen Capri RS2600 from the 1973 6 Hours of Nurburgring, co-driven by a young Klaus Ludwig, who would go on to become one of Germany's most successful touring car and endurance racers.

This privateer Capri entry sits alongside the same-era factory BMW CSLs as part of a broader touring car field that made the Nurburgring six-hour race genuinely competitive across multiple manufacturers.

A Privateer Livery in Diecast

Ford Tuning Siegen's livery carries the simpler, less densely sponsored look typical of independent 1970s touring car teams, and Minichamps' printing reflects that restraint faithfully rather than adding detail the real car never carried. The Capri's fastback profile and race-spec wheel arches are cast with the same solidity found on the street RS2600 version, while the number roundel and team lettering hold crisp edges against the base paint. Panel gaps stay consistent around the doors and hood, giving the casting a cohesive read from typical shelf viewing distance.

Klaus Ludwig's Early Career Context

Ludwig went on to multiple German touring car championships and Le Mans class wins later in his career, and entries like this 1973 Nurburgring Capri sit at the very start of that trajectory. For collectors building a driver-career shelf, an early privateer entry like this one carries genuine historical interest even without a headline finishing position attached.

Fitting Into a Broader 1973 Touring Car Field

Displayed alongside the era's factory BMW CSLs, this privateer Capri shows the full breadth of the 1973 Nurburgring field, from works teams to independent efforts. At 1:18 the Capri's compact coupe footprint sits easily next to the larger CSL castings on the same shelf.
