Peugeot 205 T16 Antonio Zanini Rallye RACE Costa Blanca 1985 decals

Group B on Spanish asphalt: the most iconic livery of the 205 T16 in 1/32 scale

Diseño Clandestino recovers one of the most recognisable designs in national motorsport from the 80s with these high-precision decals for the Peugeot 205 T16. The reference DCGEN13 faithfully reproduces the livery of the car that Antonio Zanini and Josep Autet drove in the 1985 Rallye RACE Costa Blanca, one of the most demanding asphalt events on the Spanish calendar at that time.

Set contents

The kit includes all the necessary elements to reproduce the actual appearance of the car:

• Number: #4, as it appeared in the Valencian event.
• Main sponsorship: Diario 16, with its characteristic graphic on the side of the bodywork.
• Team identity: tricolour stripes and Peugeot Talbot Sport logos.
• Event plates: official identifiers of the Rallye RACE Costa Blanca.
• Technical logos: secondary sponsors of the time, reproduced with documentary fidelity.

Film quality and application

The decals from Diseño Clandestino are made with a high-opacity film that ensures vibrant and sharp colours on the white body of the 205 T16. The material adapts well to the characteristic surfaces of the car: the side air intakes, the rear bonnet, and the curved areas of the skirts. The application is smooth and precise, designed for both display models and slot cars competing in clubs.

Scale and compatibility

Specifically designed for 1/32 scale bodies, compatible with the Peugeot 205 T16 models available in the slot market for this scale. Before applying, check that the dimensions of your specific body conform to those of the set, as there may be slight variations between manufacturers.

Antonio Zanini and the 1985 Rallye RACE Costa Blanca

Antonio Zanini is undoubtedly one of the most beloved and respected drivers in the history of Spanish motorsport. A native of Barcelona, he forged his legend throughout the 70s and 80s, combining international performances with absolute dominance in the national championship. In 1985, at the wheel of the Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 of the first evolution prepared by Peugeot España, Zanini competed in several events on the national calendar, including the Rallye RACE Costa Blanca, a scoring event for both the Spanish Championship and the European Rally Championship.

That season was historic for Zanini: he achieved the Spanish Rally Championship for Gravel and left memorable performances on asphalt, always accompanied by his inseparable co-driver Josep Autet. The 205 T16 then represented the technological forefront of world rallying, with its four-wheel drive and turbocharging, and seeing it compete on Spanish roads was an event for fans of the time. The Diario 16 livery on the white Peugeot Talbot Sport is now one of the most sought-after designs by collectors from the Group B era.

Frequently asked questions

Which slot models are these decals compatible with?

They are designed for 1/32 scale Peugeot 205 T16 bodies. We recommend checking the exact measurements of your body before applying them, as there may be slight differences between different slot manufacturers.

How are the decals correctly applied?

The usual process is to soak the decal in lukewarm water for a few seconds until it separates from the backing paper, slide it onto the already prepared surface (clean, dry, and with a glossy varnish base if possible), and adjust its position before it dries. Once dry, it is recommended to seal with varnish to protect it.

Are they suitable for display models or only for slot?

They are valid for both uses. The professional opacity of the film ensures a clean finish for both competition models and display preparations.

Does the set include all the graphics of the original car?

The set reproduces the complete livery of Zanini's Peugeot 205 T16 at the 1985 Rallye RACE Costa Blanca, including number, main sponsors, team stripes, and event plates, as documented in the product information.

Is the number correct for this event?

Yes. Antonio Zanini and Josep Autet's car carried the number #4 in the 1985 Rallye RACE Costa Blanca.
