About the Audi Quattro A2 #2 B. Waldegård / H-T. Thorszelius Belga Team Winners Boucles de Spa 1985 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #2 Belga Team Audi Quattro A2, driven by Björn Waldegård and Hans-Thomas Thorszelius to victory at the 1985 Boucles de Spa. Waldegård's Group B win came from a driver who had already claimed the sport's first-ever World Rally Championship title.

Group B remains rallying's most fearsome era, and the four-wheel-drive Quattro was the car that started the whole arms race Waldegård's win here belongs to.

A Belga Livery on Rallying's Turning-Point Car

Belga Team's yellow and black tobacco-era livery is bold and instantly recognisable, and Minichamps' diecast holds the crisp block colours and lettering across the Quattro's boxy, flared bodywork with genuine tampo precision. The Quattro's distinctive flared arches, wider than the standard road car's, are cast with sharp definition into the diecast body, and the doors open to reveal a stripped rally cabin, roll cage and bucket seats reflecting the car's genuinely competitive specification. The metal build's weight matches the seriousness of a car that permanently changed rallying by proving four-wheel drive's advantage.

A Championship-Calibre Driver's Rally Win

Waldegård had already won the World Rally Championship's inaugural title years before this Spa result, and his continued success in the Quattro shows how completely Audi's four-wheel-drive technology had reshaped the competitive landscape by the mid-1980s. For a collector building a Group B legends shelf, this documented win sits naturally alongside other Audi Quattro entries from the same golden era.
