The BMW M1 (E26) Team GS No. 88, driven by John Watson in the 1980 Procar Series, was part of one of the most exciting support series in motorsport history. Watson, an accomplished Formula 1 driver known for his smooth driving and racecraft, competed in this unique championship where F1 drivers and top sports car racers battled in identical BMW M1s. The Procar Series was particularly thrilling as it placed elite single-seater drivers into powerful mid-engine sports cars, testing their adaptability and raw skill. Watson’s participation in the 1980 season added to the prestige of the series, with close racing on legendary circuits, often serving as a preview to the Formula 1 action that followed.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
