About the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 #99 O. Solberg / E. Edmondson Rally Monte Carlo Winner 2026 IXO 1:18

TL;DR: IXO's 1:18 diecast Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 reproduces Oliver Solberg and Elliott Edmondson's #99 car, winner of the 2026 Monte Carlo Rally, cast as a sealed one-piece body with hybrid-era Rally1 aerodynamics and tampo-printed sponsor livery, a detail worth noting before adding it to a display built around opening features.

Monte Carlo opens the World Rally Championship season each year, its icy mountain stages among the sport's most treacherous and storied. Oliver Solberg, son of 2003 champion Petter Solberg, taking victory here with co-driver Elliott Edmondson marks a significant milestone for a young driver still building his senior career, one IXO's replica preserves in detail.

IXO's Sealed-Body GR Yaris Rally1 in 1:18

A Continuous Shell for a Complex Livery

Like its stablemates in the current Rally1 field, this GR Yaris carries no opening doors, bonnet or boot, built as a single sealed casting. That construction lets IXO hold tight, unbroken shut lines across the bodywork, important for a livery built from dozens of overlapping sponsor logos that would otherwise break awkwardly at a hinge line. Door handles, mirrors and the roof-mounted aerial retain fine moulded detail even without any panel that physically opens. For a livery this detailed, continuous graphic coverage across the whole body arguably matters more to a collector than a moving panel most buyers would open once and then leave closed. Panel gaps stay perfectly consistent straight out of the box, with none of the hinge wear that can loosen tolerances on an opening equivalent over years of handling.

Monte Carlo Livery and Rally1 Aerodynamics

Sponsor graphics are tampo-printed onto the body rather than applied as separate decals, staying flat against the surface and avoiding the lifting or silvering that waterslide transfers can develop with age. The GR Yaris Rally1's aggressive aerodynamic package, from its enlarged front splitter to the raised rear wing current regulations allow, is cast with crisp, well-defined edges. Wheel arches frame correctly offset rally wheels without the gaps that affect less carefully tooled models. Snow and ice tyre detail, specific to a Monte Carlo entry, is replicated accurately rather than fitted with generic gravel-pattern rubber.

Oliver Solberg, Monte Carlo and a Rising Career

Monte Carlo's Mountain Stages

The Monte Carlo Rally opens the WRC season on some of the calendar's most unpredictable stages, where ice, snow and dry tarmac can appear within a single run and catch out even the most experienced crews. A winning result here demands not just speed but the judgement to choose the right tyres and pace for conditions that can change without warning, making victory a genuine statement of all-round rally craft. For a hybrid-era Rally1 car, managing battery deployment across such variable terrain adds a further layer of strategic complexity absent from the sport's earlier eras. The event's prestige as the championship opener also means every manufacturer arrives with its strongest available line-up, raising the stakes on a win here considerably.

A Second-Generation WRC Driver

Oliver Solberg grew up around rallying as the son of Petter Solberg, the 2003 World Rally Champion, and has worked his way through junior categories into a senior Rally1 seat with the ambition of building a championship campaign of his own. Elliott Edmondson, his co-driver, brings the calm precision the discipline demands at the sport's highest level. A Monte Carlo win together marks the kind of result that can define the early years of a WRC career. Collecting a result like this one early offers a chance to own a documented milestone before a driver's reputation, and the demand for their liveries, grows further. Following a driver's career from these early results through to later championship campaigns is one of the more rewarding long-term pursuits in motorsport collecting.

Collection Context

This Monte Carlo-winning GR Yaris pairs naturally with other current Rally1 liveries, including Hyundai's i20 N and the Porsche 911 Rally GT entries in the same range, giving a collector a genuine cross-section of modern rallying across different events and manufacturers. At 1:18, the car's compact rally stance and wide arches give it the same aggressive footprint shared by its Rally1 rivals. IXO's accessible pricing makes tracking a promising driver's early results a realistic pursuit rather than an expensive gamble on reputation alone. Choosing a documented winning result over a generic season livery gives the model lasting relevance even as the driver's career develops further. It is a small but meaningful distinction for anyone building a collection around results rather than simply recognisable liveries.
