BMW M1 Racing Remco '90 Green 1:48 Dunlop Pull & Back

The diecast model depicts the BMW M1 Racing produced by Remco. The body is made of metal (zamac) and mounted on a plastic chassis, giving the whole model a solid, cool sheen. The dominant paint colour is green, combined with racing stripes in blue and red and black details that emphasise the body lines and contours. The underside features engraved Remco and NO.707 markings, as well as the country of origin, Hong Kong, confirming its age and provenance. There are no opening parts; the wheels are made of plastic with chrome-effect rims, creating a shiny wheel effect in the light. The model is approximately 90 mm long, corresponding to a scale of 1:48. The model shows signs of use: scratches on the edges and minor paint losses near the stickers, confirming the character of a period collectible. Stickers bearing the DUNLOP name and the round logo on the bonnet add authenticity, while the black details around the windows and frame emphasise the aggressive styling of racing cars. The lack of moving parts makes it a stable display model, valued by enthusiasts looking for historic diecast models to place alongside other 1:48 models. This example offers an insight into the design and production techniques of the late 1980s and early 1990s, when toy manufacturers often used metal bodies combined with plastic details, and the BMW M1 Racing theme was becoming recognisable in collections.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
