About the Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 Evo 2 W201 #9 K. Ludwig Zung Fu Racing Macau GP 1991 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 Mercedes 190E Evo 2, #9 for Klaus Ludwig's Zung Fu Racing entry at the 1991 Macau Grand Prix, is a sealed-body diecast of the DTM homologation special on a legendary street circuit. This is a used model with a box showing traces of storage. Macau's tight, unforgiving layout made this an especially telling test for the Evo 2's aggressive aero.
The Macau Guia Race drew top touring car talent to a street circuit with almost no margin for error, and Klaus Ludwig's reputation as one of the era's most decorated touring car drivers made his entries there genuinely significant events.
A Sealed-Body Casting of Macau's Homologation Star
The body is a fixed one-piece shell, so the Evo 2's flared arches, front splitter, and towering rear wing are all held in a single continuous casting with scribed lines standing in for panel seams. That construction keeps the aggressive, homologation-driven bodywork sharp and accurate, which matters given how extreme the real car's aerodynamics were relative to a standard 190E. The #9 Zung Fu Racing livery reproduces Hong Kong-market sponsor graphics with clean registration, a genuine test of small-scale tampo printing given the density of text and logos the real car carried. A sealed body suits this race casting well, since its aerodynamic shape is the whole story.
A Street-Circuit Specific Piece for a DTM Shelf
At roughly 10cm, this 190E fits comfortably among other 1:43 DTM and touring car castings, and its Macau-specific livery and driver pairing give it distinct value beyond a generic Evo 2 entry. This is a used example, and its box shows traces of storage from time in a collection; the casting and livery remain sound. Alongside other Evo 2 entries from the same era, this piece documents how a single homologation platform traveled from German domestic racing to a demanding Asian street circuit.
