Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Lancia Delta HF 4WD reproduces Dario Cerrato's number 1 Totip-liveried entry from the 1987 Targa Florio rally, the first season run under Group A regulations after Group B's ban. Opening doors and bonnet reveal a stripped, competition-spec cabin, and the Totip sponsorship marks this out as a semi-works Italian entry rather than the better-known Martini works livery. A specialist choice for a Delta HF 4WD or Group A rally collection.
About the Lancia Delta HF 4WD #1 D. Cerrato Totip Rally Targa Florio 1987 Kyosho 1:18
TL;DR: Kyosho's 1:18 diecast Lancia Delta HF 4WD reproduces Dario Cerrato's number 1 Totip-sponsored entry from the 1987 Targa Florio rally, the first season of Group A after Group B's ban. Opening panels reveal a stripped competition cabin, a specialist alternative to the better-known Martini works liveries.
Not every Delta HF 4WD wore the famous Martini stripes, and this Totip-liveried entry proves the point. Dario Cerrato's number 1 car from the 1987 Targa Florio rally represents the wider, less celebrated side of Lancia's Group A campaign.
Kyosho's Reproduction of the Totip Rally Livery
Livery Registration and Number 1 Graphics
Totip's sponsorship placed a very different set of graphics on the Delta HF 4WD than the Martini stripes most collectors picture, and Kyosho reproduces that distinction faithfully rather than treating it as a footnote. The white base carries the Totip branding and number 1 door graphics in the positions Cerrato's car ran at the Targa Florio rally, with clean registration along the door shut lines and around the wheel arch extensions the Group A homologation demanded. Getting a rally livery right depends entirely on that kind of registration, and a diecast body that keeps the graphics continuous across panel lines does more for accuracy here than any amount of extra interior detail would.
Rally-Spec Panels and Wheel Arch Extensions
The bodywork carries the flared arches and vented bonnet that distinguished the works Group A Delta from the road-going HF 4WD it was homologated from, and Kyosho keeps those extensions correctly proportioned rather than exaggerated for effect. The doors and bonnet open on secure metal hinges, showing a stripped, function-first cabin with a roll cage structure and competition seats in place of the road car's trim, a cabin built for stage work rather than comfort.
1987, Group A's First Season, and Lancia's Response
From Group B's Ban to a New Rulebook
The World Rally Championship entered 1987 under an entirely new rulebook after Group B was withdrawn on safety grounds at the end of 1986, and manufacturers across the field had to adapt cars built for a different, more permissive era. Lancia's answer was the Delta HF 4WD, a turbocharged four-wheel-drive development of the standard road car rather than the purpose-built exotic the Group B Delta S4 had been, and it went on to win the manufacturers' title that season. Totip-liveried entries like Cerrato's ran alongside the full works Martini cars in national and international rounds, part of the wider effort that made 1987 a genuine changeover year for the sport.
A Specialist Choice Beside the Martini Works Cars
Where This Fits Against Better-Known Liveries
A collector already holding a Martini-liveried Delta HF 4WD gains real variety from a Totip entry like this one, since it tells the story of Lancia's broader 1987 campaign rather than repeating the same famous colour scheme. At roughly 21 centimetres, the model sits comfortably in a 1:18 rally row alongside its Martini stablemates, and grouping several liveries from the same season shows how one chassis served multiple entrants and sponsors within a single championship. It rewards a collector who wants depth in a theme rather than just its most photographed car.
Diecast Construction for a Stage Rally Subject
Weight, Panel Fit and Rally Realism
The diecast body gives the model useful heft, and the opening doors and bonnet hold their positions without sagging, a small but real test of build quality on any diecast handled repeatedly. Resin alternatives elsewhere in a rally collection would offer sharper panel lines but seal the doors shut, losing the stripped cabin that is much of the point on a Group A subject. For a livery-led collection built around several similarly priced diecast entries, consistent panel fit across the range matters more than any single model's ultimate surface precision.
Building a Coherent 1987 Season Shelf
Pairing this Totip car with Martini-liveried stablemates from the same season creates a shelf that tells the full story of Lancia's 1987 campaign rather than a single highlight. Consistent scale and a common diecast build across several Delta HF 4WD liveries keeps such a display visually unified, and it is exactly the kind of themed grouping that rewards patient collecting over chasing one flagship car.
