About the Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 #4 S. Blomqvist / B. Cederberg Rally 1000 Lakes 1985 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: This IXO 1:18 diecast reproduces Stig Blomqvist's #4 Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 from the 1985 Rally 1000 Lakes. The sealed body carries Group B's most extreme aerodynamic package faithfully. A genuine centrepiece for a Group B rally shelf.

The S1 E2 represents Group B rallying at its most extreme, a car so aggressively aerodynamic and powerful that its era ended abruptly on safety grounds shortly after Blomqvist campaigned it through the mid-1980s.

IXO's 1:18 Diecast Approach to the S1 E2

At 1:18, this casting has genuine substance in the hand, and IXO builds the body as a fixed one-piece shell, so the S1 E2's famously enormous rear wing, front dive planes and widened box arches all sit as continuous surfaces without hinge lines interrupting the aggressive silhouette. That sealed construction actually suits this subject particularly well, since the S1 E2's bodywork was itself a single, purpose-built aerodynamic package rather than a modified road-car shell, and holding those extreme surfaces as one continuous casting captures the car's uncompromising character. The livery is applied with sharp, correctly positioned graphics that hold up to close scrutiny at this larger scale.

Group B's Brief, Extreme Era on a Shelf

Group B lasted only a few seasons before being banned outright, which makes any genuine period entry a small but real piece of one of motorsport's most dramatic chapters. At 1:18, the S1 E2's extreme aerodynamics carry real shelf presence, standing out sharply against smaller-scale rally cars or later, more conservative WRC machinery. Paired with the sister #6 Mikkola car from the same 1985 rally, this piece builds a genuine two-car snapshot of Audi's works effort at a single Group B event, a strong foundation for a rally-themed display.
