About the Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 #6 H. Mikkola / A. Hertz Rally 1000 Lakes 1985 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: This IXO 1:18 diecast reproduces Hannu Mikkola's #6 Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 from the 1985 Rally 1000 Lakes. The sealed body carries Group B's extreme aerodynamic package faithfully, pairing naturally with a teammate's car from the same event.

Hannu Mikkola's long career defined much of Audi's early rally success, and his presence on the same 1985 Finnish rally as Blomqvist shows the strength Audi's works team fielded at the height of the Group B era.

IXO's 1:18 Diecast Detail on the S1 E2

This casting carries real substance at 1:18, and IXO builds the body as a fixed one-piece shell, so the S1 E2's oversized rear wing, front dive planes and widened arches sit as continuous surfaces without hinge lines breaking up the extreme aerodynamic package. That sealed construction fits the subject naturally, since Group B's most radical machinery was designed as a single aerodynamic statement rather than a lightly modified road car. The #6 livery carries sharp, correctly positioned graphics that hold up well at this larger scale, distinguishing it clearly from the sister #4 car in team colour placement.

A Natural Pair from the Same Rally

Displaying this #6 car alongside Blomqvist's #4 from the identical 1985 Rally 1000 Lakes gives a genuine two-car snapshot of Audi's works effort at a single event, which is a more coherent display approach than collecting isolated liveries from different years. Both cars share the extreme S1 E2 aerodynamic package, so the differences between them are purely in livery and driver, exactly the kind of detail that rewards a side-by-side Group B display. At 1:18, the pair commands real shelf presence.
