About the BMW 635 CSi E24 #1 U. Felder / D. Hamelmann Auto Budde Winners 24 Hours of Nürburgring 1985 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #1 Auto Budde BMW 635 CSi E24, driven by Ulf Felder and Dieter Hamelmann to victory at the 1985 24 Hours of Nürburgring. The E24's outright win marks BMW's coupe racing pedigree extending well beyond the earlier CSL era.

By the mid-1980s the E24 had taken over BMW's big-coupe racing duties, and an outright Nürburgring 24 Hours win proved the newer platform could deliver just as convincingly as its predecessors.

A Big Coupe Built for a Round-the-Clock Win

The E24's longer, more modern lines distinguish it clearly from the earlier E9 it replaced in BMW's coupe racing lineage, and Minichamps' diecast reflects that generational shift with a body that reads distinctly newer at a glance. Auto Budde's livery combines sponsor branding with BMW's factory-adjacent colours, and the model's tampo work keeps those layered graphics sharp across the doors and bonnet. Opening the doors reveals a genuinely stripped endurance cabin, built for a twenty-four-hour effort rather than sprint racing comfort, and the metal body's weight confirms the same construction quality found across Minichamps' wider Group Racing Historic range.

An Outright Win Within BMW's Coupe Legacy

An overall Nürburgring 24 Hours victory carries genuine standing regardless of era, and this E24 result extends BMW's endurance coupe reputation forward from the earlier E9 and CSL generations. For a collector tracing that lineage across decades, this Auto Budde win is a natural next chapter after an E9-era entry.
