About the BMW 635CSi E24 JPS Team BMW #62 J. Richards Australian Touring Car Champion 1985 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast BMW 635CSi E24 recreates JPS Team BMW's #62 championship-winning entry from the 1985 Australian Touring Car Championship, driven by Jim Richards. The black and gold livery, borrowed from motorsport's most famous sponsor scheme, gives this touring car genuine visual pedigree.

Black and gold JPS liveries carry instant recognition among motorsport collectors, and this BMW wears the scheme as well as anything that raced under it.

Minichamps' Reproduction of a Championship-Winning Livery

The JPS scheme's deep black body and gold coachlines demand precision, since any inconsistency in the gold striping shows immediately against the dark base colour, and Minichamps' 1:18 diecast holds that line work cleanly across the 635CSi's long doors and boot. The E24 coupe's proportions, elegant and understated compared with later, more aggressive touring car silhouettes, suit the restrained JPS graphics well. As a diecast subject, the model opens to reveal a period-correct competition interior, roll cage included, distinct from the road-going 635CSi's cabin.

Jim Richards and BMW's Australian Touring Car Success

Jim Richards built a formidable reputation in Australian touring car racing across multiple manufacturers, and this 635CSi entry formed part of that championship-winning record during the mid-1980s. The E24-generation 635CSi gave BMW a genuine flagship coupe to campaign in a category dominated by determined local and international competition.

A Livery Worth Building a Theme Around

This model suits a collector focused on JPS liveries specifically, or on 1980s BMW touring car history, where its black and gold scheme provides an instantly identifiable anchor point.
