This is the BMW M1 M88 305L #29 Procar Series Imola Italy 1980 in 1:18 scale by Werk 83.

The BMW M1 M88 3.5L, driven by Riccardo Patrese for Team BMW Motorsport, was a standout in the 1980 Procar Series race at Imola, Italy. Patrese, a versatile driver who would later become an F1 veteran, showcased his skill behind the wheel of the iconic mid-engine M1. The car's 3.5L straight-six engine, delivering around 470 horsepower, made it one of the most formidable machines in the Procar Series, which featured some of the top F1 drivers competing in identical BMW M1s. The 1980 season was unique as it brought together elite drivers from different disciplines, creating thrilling competition and making it a fan favorite. The Imola race was particularly memorable for its mix of high-speed sections and challenging corners, where Patrese's experience shone in this fiercely contested one-make series.
