I am letting go of a very special piece. This is an official BMW Heritage Racing Collection 1:18 scale diecast model of the iconic BMW 1800 TI.
This specific model represents the #4 car that took 1st Place at the 1965 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, driven by Pascal Ickx and Gérard Langlois van Ophem. It is manufactured by Minichamps for BMW, meaning the detail on the engine, interior, and rally lights is absolute top-tier.
Condition:
Mint condition in the original display box. The box still has the official BMW hologram sticker.
Why the price?
If you are a serious BMW enthusiast or diecast collector, you know how incredibly rare these official dealer-edition models are to find locally.
To buy this exact model overseas right now will cost you around R2,000. Add international courier shipping (R1,000+), plus the absolute headache of SARS customs duties, clearing fees, and 15% VAT, and you are easily looking at R3,800 to R4,500 landed. That’s not even mentioning the risk of the model getting crushed in transit or "disappearing" at customs.
Buy it locally, inspect it in person, and take it home today with zero risk.
