About the Toyota Celica GT-Four ST185 #97 J-M. Latvala / J. Hänninen Arctic Lapland Rally 2024 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: IXO's 1:18 diecast Toyota Celica GT-Four ST185 #97 reproduces the livery driven by Jari-Matti Latvala and Juho Hänninen at the 2024 Arctic Lapland Rally. It bridges Toyota's Group A rally heyday with modern Finnish historic rallying, a niche but rewarding subject for a WRC classic shelf.

Seeing a Celica GT-Four ST185 entered at a 2024 event tells its own story: Toyota's Group A championship-winning car from the 1990s is still being driven competitively at Finnish historic rallies, decades after its factory career ended.

IXO's Diecast Take on a Historic-Rally Entry

IXO has built its catalogue around rally and racing subjects at accessible price points, and this Celica shows the approach applied well: the diecast body captures the ST185's flared arches and rally-spec ride height, with graphics work carrying the #97 Arctic Lapland livery cleanly onto a compact shape. The material trade-off here is honest rather than premium, offering solid subject accuracy without the sharper shut lines a sealed resin build could add. For a rally-focused collection, that trade suits the format, since it is the livery and stance that carry the visual interest, not micro-level panel precision.

A Championship Shape in a Modern Historic Context

The ST185 was Toyota's Group A weapon through the early 1990s, the generation that established the marque as a genuine World Rally Championship contender before the ST205 and Corolla WRC continued the story. Jari-Matti Latvala's name adds a real connective thread, since he later became a factory Toyota WRC driver and now leads the works team, giving this historic-rally outing a link between eras rather than a random pairing of car and driver. Displayed alongside period ST185 liveries from Toyota's actual Group A campaigns, this model shows how the car's competitive life has continued well past its factory retirement.
