This is the Lancia 037 EVO 2 Bastos #2 Rally Ypres 1985 in 1:18 scale by IXO.

The Lancia 037 Evo 2, bearing the number 2 and sponsored by Bastos, was driven by Patrick Snijers with co-driver Dany Colebunders in the 1985 Rally Ypres. Patrick Snijers, a renowned Belgian rally driver, brought his exceptional skill and local knowledge to the demanding Ypres stages, known for their narrow, fast tarmac roads and challenging corner sequences. The 1985 Rally Ypres was particularly notable for its unpredictable weather, which added an extra layer of difficulty to the already technical course. Snijers and Colebunders' performance in the Lancia 037 Evo 2 highlighted the car's superior handling and agility, crucial for navigating the tight, twisty roads of the Belgian countryside. Their participation underscored the precision and adaptability required to excel in one of Europe's most prestigious and challenging tarmac rallies, showcasing both their driving prowess and the Lancia's competitive edge.
