About the Opel Commodore A #9 Steinmetz E. Haxhe / L. Toussaint 24 Hours of Spa 1970 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #9 Steinmetz Opel Commodore A driven by E. Haxhe and L. Toussaint at the 1970 24 Hours of Spa. Part of a genuine three-car Steinmetz entry, this model works both alone and as one third of a documented period grid.

Steinmetz rarely entered a single car when it could field a squad, and the 1970 Spa 24 Hours saw the tuning house commit three Commodores to the fight.

A Second Steinmetz Livery, Cast With the Same Care

This #9 car shares its underlying Commodore A body with the #8 and #10 Steinmetz entries from the same race, but Minichamps has treated each as its own specific subject rather than a simple number swap. The sponsor striping, race number placement and period touring car stance are all cast to match documented photography of this exact entry. Metal body construction gives the model real weight, and the wider wheel and tyre proportions correctly reflect the setup Steinmetz ran across its Spa squad. Panel gaps stay tight along the doors and boot, and the paint holds consistent depth under direct light, letting the sponsor colours read clearly rather than as a flat decal effect.

Haxhe, Toussaint and Steinmetz's Multi-Car Spa Effort

E. Haxhe and L. Toussaint shared driving duties on the #9 car during the gruelling 24 Hours of Spa, a race that punished cars and drivers alike on the long, unforgiving original Spa-Francorchamps circuit. Steinmetz's decision to field multiple Commodores in the same race was a common tactic for tuning houses seeking to maximise their odds across such a demanding event, and it gives collectors a genuine multi-car story to assemble rather than a single isolated entry.

Completing a Steinmetz Spa Grid

Paired with its #8 and #10 sister cars, this Commodore turns a single race replica into a small, historically accurate grid, a genuinely satisfying display for anyone collecting early-1970s European touring car racing.
