About the Volkswagen Race Touareg Red Bull #310 J. Kleinschmidt / F. Pons Dakar Rally 2005 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast Volkswagen Race Touareg #310 reproduces the car driven by Jutta Kleinschmidt and Fabrizia Pons at the 2005 Dakar Rally, in factory Red Bull livery. Kleinschmidt remains the only woman to have won the Dakar outright, giving this casting genuine crew significance beyond the livery itself.

Few names in Dakar history carry more weight than Jutta Kleinschmidt's, and her 2005 seat in Volkswagen's factory Race Touareg program makes #310 more than just another raid car livery.

Kleinschmidt, Pons, and Car #310

The Only Woman to Win Dakar Outright

Jutta Kleinschmidt won the Dakar Rally overall in 2001 driving a Mitsubishi, a result that remains unmatched by any other woman in the event's history. Her move to Volkswagen's works Race Touareg squad placed her at the center of the marque's diesel-powered Dakar ambitions, driving alongside co-driver Fabrizia Pons, an Italian navigator with a rally background that included years reading routes at the top level of the sport. Their pairing on #310 gave Volkswagen's 2005 campaign one of its most recognizable and credentialed lineups.

Red Bull Colors and the Race Touareg Prototype

Car #310 wore the same factory Red Bull scheme as its sister entries, white bodywork carrying bold sponsor graphics across the hood, doors, and flanks. Underneath, the Race Touareg ran as a purpose-built T1 prototype powered by a diesel V10, part of Volkswagen's broader strategy of proving diesel technology on the world's toughest rally-raid before the model's diesel successors eventually won Dakar outright later in the decade.

Minichamps' Diecast Execution of the Livery

Sealed Body and Graphic Registration

This casting is a one-piece zinc alloy body with no opening panels, a construction choice that lets the sponsor decals and body-color transitions run continuously across the arches without a hinge line interrupting them. The weight in hand confirms the metal construction, and the paint holds real depth on the hard shell, letting the Red Bull graphics sit with sharp, even edges rather than the softer registration a lighter material would allow.

What to Compare Against the Real Car

Checking fidelity on this subject starts with the flared arch profile and the roof-mounted auxiliary lighting array, both defining features of the T1 prototype silhouette, followed by the placement of the #310 door numbering and sponsor panels against known period photography. At 1:43, those details need to stay legible without the graphics blurring together, a genuine test of tampo-printing precision on a livery this dense.

A Standout Piece for a Dakar or Kleinschmidt Collection

This casting works especially well for collectors specifically tracking Dakar's most significant crews rather than the event generically, since Kleinschmidt's record gives #310 a documentable edge over an unnamed livery casting. It pairs naturally with her earlier Mitsubishi-era pieces or with sibling Touareg entries from the same 2005 season. At mass-market diecast pricing, it delivers genuine motorsport pedigree at an accessible cost.
