About the Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 EVO II W201 #12 Team Mass Schons J. van Ommen DTM 1992 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: This 1:18 Minichamps diecast reproduces the #12 Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 EVO II run by Team Mass Schons with J. van Ommen in the 1992 DTM season, carrying its full period sponsor livery. A genuine slice of DTM's most competitive homologation-special era for touring car collectors.

The 190E EVO II turned Mercedes' compact saloon into a homologation special built purely to win DTM races, and this diecast puts one specific 1992 grid entry into scale rather than a generic road-going version.

Minichamps' Diecast Recreation of a 1992 DTM Grid Car

The zinc alloy body holds the EVO II's flared arches and rear wing crisply, and the livery application, sponsor decals, racing numbers and Team Mass Schons colours, sits with clean edges rather than soft registration, a detail that matters enormously on a race-liveried subject where sloppy graphics ruin the effect instantly. Diecast construction at this scale usually permits opening doors and bonnet, letting a collector check the roll-cage and stripped interior that separated the EVO II race car from the standard road saloon. Panel gaps run to the tight side typical of Minichamps' motorsport range, an important detail on a subject whose whole appeal is faithful race-day accuracy.

The 190E EVO II in the DTM Story

Mercedes built the EVO II specifically to homologate the aerodynamic package needed to compete with BMW and Audi in the fiercely contested early-1990s DTM series, and by 1992 the class had become one of the most technically advanced touring car championships in the world. Team Mass Schons was one of several independent squads running EVO IIs that season, and preserving a specific driver and car number in scale gives this model documentary value beyond a generic Mercedes racing colour scheme.

Building a DTM Grid in Miniature

This model rewards collectors assembling a full-grid approach to early-1990s DTM, where EVO II variants from different teams and drivers sit side by side to recreate an actual race weekend. Paired with rival Audi V8 or BMW M3 DTM entries from the same era, it tells a far richer story than a single car alone. At 1:18 the scale carries the aggressive wide-body styling well, making it a strong centrepiece for a dedicated touring car shelf.
