Classic rally Scalextric cars for collectors
Lancia Delta Integrale – Servià 88: pure nostalgia in Camel livery
If one car sums up the golden age of rallying, it is the Lancia Delta Integrale. It won six consecutive manufacturers’ championships between 1987 and 1992, a record no other model has matched since. The Camel livery on this Scalextric model pays tribute to one of the most recognisable looks in eighties motorsport, when rally cars were rolling advertising boards with serious attitude.
Fun fact: the Delta Integrale did not just win on the stages: its turbocharged engine and four-wheel-drive system directly influenced the development of the Lancia road-going performance cars that followed, leaving a mark well beyond rallying.
Having it in the cabinet means owning a little piece of Group A’s glory years. And at a reduced price, it is the sort of model you do not want to leave behind.

Ford Escort Cosworth – Lia Block: a modern twist on a rally icon
The Ford Escort Cosworth is one of the great names of 1990s rallying, and this Lia Block livery gives it a very distinctive edge. It is not the usual period works colour scheme, which makes it stand out nicely in any collection built around legendary rally machinery.
Fun fact: the Escort Cosworth earned fame for its enormous rear wing — nicknamed the “whale tail” by fans — which generated the downforce needed to tame Group A gravel and tarmac stages in the early 1990s.
A car that combines European rally nostalgia with a fresh, contemporary competition look.

Competition rally Scalextric cars
Citroën Xsara Pro SCX — professional rallying in 1:32 scale
The Xsara was the weapon with which Citroën dominated the World Rally Championship in the early 2000s, with Sébastien Loeb making his breakthrough at the wheel of this model before stringing together his historic titles with the Xsara WRC. It is a car that feels like pure competition: beefed-up suspension, aggressive aerodynamics and a silhouette that is still instantly recognisable at any classic rally event.
Fun fact: the Xsara WRC was one of the most successful rally cars of recent times, and Citroën used it as the basis for becoming one of the most decorated manufacturers in the World Rally Championship during the 2000s.
This model from the SCX PRO range is aimed at anyone looking for faithful detailing and on-track behaviour worthy of the real thing: ideal for display as well as proper racing between enthusiasts.

Scalextric GT cars and supercars for your circuit
Mercedes AMG GT3 — Makes & Models: German elegance on track
If the previous cars are all about classic rally nostalgia, the AMG GT3 is pure modern performance. This model competes in GT3 categories around the world — Blancpain, IMSA, Nürburgring 24 Hours — and has become a benchmark for its balance of raw power and precise circuit handling.
Fun fact: the AMG GT3 shares much of its technical DNA with the road-going GT, but every competition car is hand-assembled at AMG’s Affalterbach facility, following the same “One Man, One Engine” craft ethos that defines the brand.
The Makes & Models edition adds the touch of exclusivity collectors look for: it is not just a track car, but a piece for those who value finish and detail as much as performance.

BMW M1 – Denim: when a supercar became a racing car
The BMW M1 has an unusual story: it began as a road-car project created to homologate a racing machine, and ended up spawning its own one-make series, the Procar BMW M1, which supported Formula 1 in the late 1970s. This Denim livery, with its textured jeans-style look, is one of those editions that stands out precisely because it dares to move away from the usual racing-livery script.
Fun fact: the M1 was BMW’s first mid-engined car, a layout the brand would not use again in a production model for decades, making it a rarity even within BMW’s own history.
A perfect piece for anyone after something different from the typical rally or GT car: design, engineering and a livery that catches the eye in any display cabinet.
