Carrera DIGITAL 124 BMW M1 Procar 'Sauber Racing - Norisring 1980'
Item No.: 20023828
Pooh…
What at first sounds like a sigh or the name of a honey-licking bear is the main sponsor of the new BMW M1 in 1:24 scale, the original driven by Marc Surer in 1980 at the Norisring.
Okay, POOH is a jeans brand, as you can tell from the flawless print on the model. But even though it's age-appropriate for my era, I've never heard of a jeans brand called POOH... so my curiosity piqued, I searched the internet.
Even after a long search, I could only find Disney-style clothing. The jeans brand POOH doesn't seem to have made it from the 809s onto the internet... perhaps one of you can find out more about the company (I'd be interested to know, by the way).
The design of the vehicle, with its light blue and white color scheme and yellow zipper, looks successful, and its proportions and layout fit the vehicle well. Everything in the model is faithfully reproduced and executed flawlessly. I particularly like MARC, the understated driver figure. All in all, it's an asset to the series, easily recognizable and distinguishable on the track.
The 1:24 scale BMW M1 exhibits no technical imperfections, defects, or other issues. It's well known from our reports and our own experiences that it's fun to drive – unfortunately, due to the gear ratio, only in a dedicated BMW M1 series. But that gives hope for many more models in the years to come.
Perhaps the next version should be the BMW M1, which Christian Danner, Manfred Schurti, and Manfred Winkelhock drove in 1980... It has a HIS advertisement; I still remember the jeans brand ;-)
Have fun with the vehicle
