About the Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 EVO II W201 #8 Zung Fu E. Lohr Guia Race Macau 1992 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Mercedes 190E EVO II reproduces Ellen Lohr's #8 Zung Fu entry from the 1992 Guia Race in Macau. The homologation special's wide arches and wing package are captured with the same care as the model's European DTM stablemates, on a livery unique to Asia's most storied street circuit.

The Guia Race brought European-spec EVO IIs to the tight, unforgiving Macau street circuit, giving this generation of touring car a rare international outing beyond its home DTM series.

A Familiar Casting, an Unfamiliar Livery

This model shares body tooling with Minichamps' DTM-liveried EVO IIs, so the box arches, roof spoiler, and low stance carry the same accurate proportions collectors expect from this generation. What sets it apart is the Zung Fu livery, a scheme rarely seen outside Macau racing history, and the printed graphics register cleanly across the doors and rear wing without the artwork looking pasted on. The wheels and ride height match the homologated EVO II spec used across the range, and the diecast body gives the model consistent weight and panel definition with its European counterparts. For a collector who already owns several DTM liveries, this piece offers the same build quality on a livery that stands out for its rarity in most Western touring car collections.

Macau's Place in Touring Car History

The Guia Race has run on Macau's street circuit for decades, the same demanding layout that hosts the territory's Formula 3 grand prix, and inviting European touring cars to compete there gave the EVO II a genuine international stage outside Germany's domestic series. For a collector building a global touring car shelf rather than one confined to DTM, this Macau entry adds geographic breadth alongside the European liveries, showing how far the 190E's competitive reach extended in period. Displayed next to the other Zung Fu liveries from the same event, it documents a specific, well-remembered chapter in one of Asia's longest-running street races.
