Opel Astra V8 Coupe #3 U. Alzen DTM 2000 Action 1:18
Opel Astra V8 Coupe #3 U. Alzen DTM 2000 Action 1:18
1/8
Action's 1:18 diecast reproduces the #3 Opel Astra V8 Coupe driven by Uwe Alzen in the 2000 DTM season. A companion livery to Opel's other factory entries from the same year, part of the manufacturer battle that relaunched Germany's premier touring car championship.
About the Opel Astra V8 Coupe #3 U. Alzen DTM 2000 Action 1:18
TL;DR: This Action 1:18 diecast reproduces the #3 Opel Astra V8 Coupe driven by Uwe Alzen in the 2000 DTM season, one of several factory entries fielded by Opel in the championship's newly relaunched two-manufacturer format.
Fielding multiple factory cars was standard practice for Opel's 2000 DTM effort, and Alzen's #3 sits alongside team-mates carrying the same bodywork under different numbers.
A Multi-Car Factory Effort in Diecast
The Astra V8 Coupe's purpose-built racing silhouette, flared arches over a bespoke tube-frame chassis, is shared across every Opel entry that season, with number and sponsor placement the main visual distinction between cars. Action's diecast keeps that shared bodywork consistent across the range while rendering Alzen's specific #3 livery accurately, useful for collectors assembling a full-team display where uniform tooling quality across multiple cars actually matters more than any single livery standing out.
Alzen and Opel's Team Strength in 2000
Uwe Alzen was part of a genuinely deep Opel driver line-up in DTM's 2000 season, reflecting the manufacturer's serious commitment to beating Mercedes in the championship's relaunched format. A collector building a complete Opel works team from that year will want this alongside its sister liveries, since the full grid picture is really the point of a season like this.
