This is the Volvo 240 Turbo Team Dealer #10 Winner ATCC 1986 in 1:18 scale by IXO.

The Volvo 240 Turbo, car number 10, driven by Robbie Francevic for Team Dealer, clinched the championship in the 1986 Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC). Francevic, a seasoned New Zealand driver, was known for his smooth driving style and strategic racecraft, which he expertly applied to harness the power of the Volvo 240 Turbo, nicknamed the "Flying Brick" for its boxy shape and surprising speed. The 1986 ATCC was unique in that it marked the first time a European turbocharged car won the championship, breaking the dominance of the traditional V8-powered cars. Francevic's victory not only highlighted his exceptional driving skills but also showcased the Volvo 240 Turbo's advanced engineering, making this championship win a landmark moment in Australian motorsport history.
