This is the Audi V8 Quattro #45 Champion 1991 DTM Frank Biela in 1:18 scale by WERK83.
The Audi V8 quattro DTM (#45) driven by Frank Biela secured the 1991 DTM championship, making him the first driver ever to defend a DTM title—and the car itself the only factory sedan to rise above lighter competitors thanks to quattro all-wheel-drive traction. Biela demonstrated remarkable consistency across the season, culminating in a dramatic final weekend at Hockenheim where two race victories sealed the title over fierce BMW and Mercedes opposition. What set the campaign apart was the raw innovation: a heavyweight 3.6 L V8 saloon pushed to 480 hp, using AWD to outperform lighter, rear-wheel-drive cars—even underweight penalties—redefining what a touring car could achieve in Group A racing.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
