New for 2021 is the 1/24 scale BRM BMW 2002 Ti. Available now in two liveries and a white kit, I shall let the BRM team introduce the new car to you...
The BMW 2002 was the 2-litre version of the 02 Series car, first introduced in 1968. The Ti was a high-compression, twin-carburettor upgrade that produced 118 bhp from the factory, 19 horsepower more than the standard 2002. The 2002 Ti was successfully exported to the US as well as a top of the range option in the domestic European market - nearly 400,000 of all types being produced between 1968 and 1976.
In terms of motorsport, the 2002Ti was a fixture in European touring car racing...
The car also competed in the under 2-litre class in the Trans-Am series. BMW used the 2002 in a limited rallying programme, making its debut on the 1969 Monte Carlo Rally and winning the 1972 TAP Portuguese Rally, driven by Achim Wormbald. The car was successful on numerous local and regional rallies. The 2002 Ti remains a popular car in all forms of historic racing. BRM have a huge number of period and modern liveries to choose from.
Who can argue with a Jägermeister livery to start with?

This car runs in historic racing in Germany, most notably in the Fahrergemeinschaft Historischer Rennsport (FHR) 100 Meilen Trophy at the Hockenheim Historic. This 100 mile race was first held at the event in 2017, featuring Group 4 and Group 5 as well as other sports, GT and racing saloons from the 1966 to 1981 period. The Jägermeister might not be frontrunner, but it certainly stands out...

It is another iconic BMW livery...
[attachment=13784]
As mentioned in the video, the BMW 2002 Ti fits in with the BRM Group 2 Mini Saloons range - 1/24 scale but perfectly proportioned to run on 1/32 plastic track systems, even the narrow Scalextric Sport / Classic and classic SCX. The layout and components are similar to the other rear-wheel-drive models in the range...
