About the Porsche 917/20 Jägermeister #7 Motorsport Club Stuttgart Interserie 1973 Minichamps 1:43

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:43 diecast reproduces Motorsport Club Stuttgart's #7 Porsche 917/20 wearing Jägermeister orange, entered in European Interserie competition during 1973. Sealed one-piece body, the model's distinctively wide bodywork intact. A niche but genuine piece of the 917/20's unusual racing afterlife beyond Le Mans.

The 917/20 is best remembered for a single, unusually wide test chassis built for Le Mans aerodynamic experiments, but variants of that broad-bodied shape found further life in European Interserie racing through the early 1970s. Minichamps' 1:43 diecast captures one such example in Jägermeister's unmistakable orange, a discovery piece for collectors who look past the 917's most famous liveries.

The 917/20's Wide-Body Shape in Interserie Livery

From Le Mans Aero Test Mule to Club Racer

Porsche originally developed the 917/20's noticeably broader bodywork to test aerodynamic theories at Le Mans, a one-off experiment that produced a car wider and less conventionally proportioned than the standard 917. That distinctive width, built to reduce drag through a different approach to the car's airflow, made the shape recognisable even to observers unfamiliar with the technical reasoning behind it. Variants and interpretations of that wide-body concept went on to see further competition in Interserie, the European series that gave ageing Can-Am and Group racing prototypes a continued competitive life once their original programmes had moved on to newer machinery.

Motorsport Club Stuttgart's #7 Jägermeister Entry

Interserie in the early 1970s attracted a mix of factory-adjacent efforts and well-run club and private teams, and Motorsport Club Stuttgart's #7 entry sits firmly in that second category, giving privateer squads a genuine chance to run former top-tier machinery. Jägermeister's orange and white branding, already a familiar sight across various forms of German motorsport through this period, gave the car strong visual identity in a series that didn't always attract the same level of media attention as Le Mans or Can-Am. That relative obscurity is exactly what makes a well-reproduced example like this one appealing to collectors chasing subjects beyond the obvious headline liveries.

Minichamps' Rendering of the 917/20's Distinctive Width

Jägermeister Orange Against a Wide Bodyshell

Jägermeister's orange sits against a white base in large, clean blocks, and Minichamps keeps the colour separation sharp along the car's unusually broad flanks, where the wider bodywork gives the livery more surface to work across than a standard-width 917 would offer. The number 7 is tampo-printed with clear edges within its panel, and the overall colour balance stays true to the branding's recognisable identity rather than drifting toward a generic orange. On a shape this distinctive, getting the proportions of the wide arches and low nose correct matters just as much as the livery itself.

Sealed Casting and Panel Proportion at 1:43

This model has no opening bodywork, cast as a single sealed shell, a sensible approach on a car whose wide, low silhouette is itself the main attraction. The broader arches and flatter deck that define the 917/20's shape are captured as one continuous form, without a shut line breaking up the flanks where the livery's colour blocks need to read cleanly. Wheel arch gaps and the low windscreen glazing hold consistent, tight tolerances typical of a considered 1:43 diecast, and the rear intake detailing keeps enough definition to signal the car's competition intent even at this small scale.

A Discovery Piece for 917 Specialists

This is not a headline 917 livery, and that is precisely its appeal for a collector who already owns the more famous Can-Am and Le Mans variants. Interserie racing gave the 917's wide-body concept a second competitive life away from the factory spotlight, and reproducing that chapter accurately requires a manufacturer willing to research beyond the obvious subjects. At 1:43, the car's unusual width still reads clearly against neighbouring standard-bodied 917s on the same shelf, offering a genuine visual point of comparison. For anyone building a collection around the full breadth of Porsche's early-1970s prototype racing rather than just its most photographed moments, this Jägermeister entry rewards that deeper interest.
