About the BMW 635 CSi E24 #7 BMW Italia G. Brancatelli / H. Kelleners Brno Grand Prix 1984 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces BMW Italia's #7 635 CSi E24, driven by Gianfranco Brancatelli and Helmut Kelleners at the 1984 Brno Grand Prix. It represents BMW's coupe-based touring car racing before the 3 Series took over that role.

Before the E30 dominated BMW's touring car story, the larger 635 CSi carried the marque's flag in European touring car racing, and this diecast marks that earlier chapter.

Faithful Livery Work on a Larger Racing Coupe

The 635 CSi's long, elegant coupe bodywork gave BMW Italia's touring car conversion a genuinely different visual character from smaller rivals, and Minichamps captures that scale with correctly proportioned flared arches and the period BMW Italia sponsor graphics applied cleanly across the flanks. The #7 number and driver names are legible without crowding the bodywork, and the diecast build carries the weight expected of a larger touring coupe rather than a compact hatchback racer. Wheel and vent detailing round out a genuinely thorough treatment of a less commonly replicated 1980s subject.

BMW's Coupe-Based Touring Car Era

Before the E30 3 Series became BMW's dominant touring car platform, the larger 6 Series coupe carried the marque's competitive ambitions across European events including the Brno Grand Prix, with drivers like Brancatelli and Kelleners campaigning it through the early 1980s. That larger, heavier platform demanded a different competitive approach than the nimbler cars that would eventually replace it. For a collector tracing BMW's touring car evolution rather than jumping straight to the more famous E30 era, this 635 CSi fills an important earlier chapter with genuine period accuracy.
