The Mitsubishi Lancer from the Rally dos Sertoes, ready to roll on your favourite chassis

Avant Slot once again demonstrates its mastery in reproducing real competition bodies with this replica of the Mitsubishi Lancer that participated in the renowned Rally dos Sertoes. The reference AV20268B arrives decorated and factory assembled, with all the graphics of the original car faithfully transferred to scale. You just need to attach it to a compatible chassis and hit the track.

Features and highlights

• Decorated and assembled body: arrives ready to install, with no need for additional paint or decals.
• Faithful decoration to the original: graphics based on the Mitsubishi Lancer that participated in the Rally dos Sertoes.
• Avant Slot manufacturing: a benchmark in the industry for resin bodies with high-precision decoration.
• Does not include chassis or mechanics: designed to mount on your usual mechanical setup or as a collector's item.

Scale and level of detail

Avant Slot typically works in 1:32 scale, the most widespread in the world of competitive and club slot racing. The brand's bodies stand out for their finish, the clarity of the decals, and the solidity of the assembly once mounted. If you already have experience with other bodies from the same line, you will find the same level of demand that the Barcelona manufacturer is known for.

Compatibility and assembly

As this is a body without chassis or mechanics, it is essential to have a compatible mechanical setup. Avant Slot has its own chassis designed for its bodies, although many enthusiasts choose to adapt chassis from other leading brands such as Scaleauto or NSR. Check the mounting measurements before making any modifications to ensure the fit is correct.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of rally slot cars looking for decorations from international events outside the usual European circuit.
• Club racers who want to personalise their mechanical setup with a real competition body and premium finish.
• Modelling enthusiasts who wish to display the piece as a collection without the need for mechanics.

Aspects to consider

This reference does not include chassis or mechanics. If you are looking for a complete car ready to race, you will need to purchase or reuse a separate mechanical setup. Always check the compatibility of the chassis with the body before final assembly.

History: the Rally dos Sertoes and the Mitsubishi Lancer

The Rally dos Sertoes is one of the most demanding and long-standing off-road rallies in South America. Founded in 1988 in Brazil, its name refers to the literary work Os Sertões by Euclides da Cunha, and its stages traverse the inhospitable interior of Brazil, the so-called "sertão", a semi-arid region of extremely uneven terrain that tests both vehicles and teams.

The Mitsubishi Lancer is one of the historic names in world rallying. With a career forged in the World Rally Championship (WRC) and long-distance events around the globe, the Lancer Evolution has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to adapt to extreme conditions: mud, dust, heat, stone. Its presence in the Rally dos Sertoes was not anecdotal: the car and its teams competed head-to-head with the best preparations on the continent, becoming one of the regular protagonists of this Brazilian event. Avant Slot has chosen this decoration to pay tribute to one of the lesser-known but equally exciting chapters in the history of international rallying.
