Avant Slot / Maralic Bastos Opel Mantas + GMC assistance van - woodcote - 10th-Jul-21

[attachment=16232]

Breaking news today...the scheduled release of two Bastos sponsored Avant Slot Opel Manta Group B rally cars - one of them bundled with the Resinas Maralic GMC assistance van.

Avant Slot 51509 Opel Manta 400 #5 Bastos Texaco Rally Team - Guy Colsoul & Alain Lopes - Ypres 24 Hours Rally 1985. Scheduled Oct/Nov 2021
Avant Slot / Maralic RSV2103 GMC Van + Opel Manta 400 #3 - Guy Colsoul & Alain Lopes - Rallye du Condroz 1985. Scheduled Oct/Nov 2021

A quick trawl of the internet didn't throw up any images of the van, but here are the cars from Condroz and Ypres - both rounds of the European Rally Championship in 1985...

This is a similar release to last year's Guy Fréquelin Opel Euro Team Mantas and support vehicle (preview thread here) - although there doesn't seem to be a trailer in the set this time.

Huge thanks to Steve at Staffs Slot Cars UK for sending the image through. I'm sure there'll be more news and photos over the next few months.
