About the Mercedes CLK DTM Team Manthey #9 B. Maylander DTM 2001 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast Mercedes CLK DTM reproduces the Team Manthey #9 car driven by Bernd Maylander in the 2001 DTM season. The body is a sealed one-piece shell. A compact-scale entry from a well-known endurance racing team's DTM chapter.

Manthey Racing is better known today for its Porsche endurance program, but this CLK entry shows the team's involvement in DTM during its 2001 relaunch season.

Fixed-Body Diecast at Compact Scale

The CLK's body is a single fixed zinc alloy shell at 1:43, holding the DTM silhouette car's aerodynamic details as molded features consistent across the casting. The Manthey livery's decal work is tampo-printed cleanly onto the shell, and despite the smaller scale, sponsor logos and the #9 roundel stay legible. This construction keeps the model's weight and finish quality in line with what the diecast segment delivers at this size, favoring a broad, collectible grid over the added complexity of hinged panels that a compact scale rarely benefits from anyway.

Manthey's DTM Presence

Bernd Maylander, who would go on to become Formula 1's long-serving official safety car driver, competed for Manthey in this 2001 DTM season, a year before his single-seater support role began in earnest. For a collector tracking Maylander's career or Manthey's motorsport history beyond its Nurburgring endurance program, this CLK is a specific, verifiable entry worth adding to a DTM revival-era grid, distinct from the team's more widely recognized GT efforts.
