THE AUDI THAT CHANGED THE GAME

AUDI THAT CHANGED THE GAME

To this day the AUDI Sport Quattro S still races and still appears in perfect shape to take wins without causing too much sweat. Shorter, wider and turbo charged this full time 4WD hot hatch had 444Hp under the hood and with its power to weight ratio, still dominates.
This was also the model raced by Champion Rally racer and Champion for the movement of grooming more women for motorsport Michele Mouton. She had taken on some of the most grueling rally tracks found around the world and etched out some winning times and podiums for herself becoming an icon in motorsport.
This is what this car represented, an icon that made icons repeatedly. This model from OTTO-Mobile is the car driven by famous Rally Driver Walter Rohrl who is known as one of the world’s greatest. In Italy he was crowned the title ‘Rallye Driver of the Century’ and in France he was dubbed ‘Rallye Driver of the Millennium” and his skill was impeccable.
Of course, in rallying a driver is only as good as his machine and this car was absolutely exceptional. From the very first gen quattro right down to the Sport S it was nothing but refinement over refinement gone into to build a machine that could fit the caliber of racers like Michele Mouton and Walter Rohrl. That same refinement is what Otto-mobile have done with this 1/18 replica. This is a gift that a true rally aficionado would really appreciate.
This is a total winner when it comes to details. The first thing that caught our eye was the authenticity and realism of those rally fog lights on the front after that everything else from there onwards was “ooo’s” and ‘ahhhs’ from us. The body shape of the car? Done well. Great resin cast, decals and livery
is all in place and in order, lights as we mentioned before look like the real thing, wheels are perfect replica’s again, we looked at many pictures of this car in many angles to compare and the verdict is exceptional.
The interior is super detailed as well but, unfortunately the model is sealed so you have to enjoy the details from the outside. Rally car lovers will certainly enjoy one of these because even noobs to the sport will recognize the importance and greatness of this car.
