Peugeot 306 Maxi - Yves Pezzutti - Yokohama Decoration - AV52801

Classic rally in its purest form: the Peugeot 306 Maxi by Pezzutti hits the track in Yokohama colours

The reference AV52801 from Avant Slot captures one of the most recognisable colour schemes in French regional motorsport: the Yokohama Advan livery in satin black and vibrant red on the legendary Peugeot 306 Maxi. A Kit Car that defined an entire era of European rallying and which here, at 1:32 scale, retains every line of its competition body with a fidelity that any rally enthusiast will appreciate.

Features and highlights

• 1:32 scale, the reference standard in competitive slot racing and collecting.
• Bodywork with Yokohama Advan decoration: satin black at the front blending into the characteristic red at the rear, following the historical pattern of the Japanese tyre brand.
• Multi-spoke white wheels that enhance the visual contrast and reflect the actual appearance of the car in competition.
• High-definition tampo printing with Yokohama and Advan logos applied to the body, with detail precision visible even at close range.
• Multi-adjustable chassis from Avant Slot, allowing the car's behaviour to be adapted according to the track and driving style.
• Collectible reference with exclusive livery, hard to find among other manufacturers.

Scale and level of detail

Avant Slot is one of the reference manufacturers in the slot world when it comes to resin cars with high-fidelity finishes. The Peugeot 306 Maxi AV52801 is no exception: the body geometry respects the proportions of the real car, and the aerodynamic details typical of Kit Cars —spoilers, air intakes, side skirts— are present and accurately reproduced. The overall design conveys the visual aggression that characterised these rally prototypes in the 90s.

Track performance

The multi-adjustable chassis from Avant Slot allows for weight distribution and ride height adjustments, resulting in a car that performs well on both technical circuits with tight corners —where the historic 306 Maxi excelled on dirt and asphalt stages— and faster layouts. The guide and braids follow the brand's usual standards, compatible with the most common tracks in clubs and home circuits.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of classic rally cars looking for unusual livery variants with real history behind them.
• Club racers wanting a car with adjustable mechanics and a distinctive visual personality on the grid.
• Fans of 90s French motorsport and enthusiasts of the FIA Kit Car programme, which revolutionised regional rallying of the time.

Points to consider

As with all Avant Slot models, it is recommended to check the guide adjustment and braid tension before the first run. The multi-adjustable chassis offers configuration margin, but it is advisable to perform a few warm-up laps to find the optimal balance point on each track.

Yves Pezzutti and the Peugeot 306 Maxi Yokohama

Yves Pezzutti is a French driver with a long career in regional and national rallies in France, where the Peugeot 306 Maxi was his work tool for years. With the unmistakable Yokohama Advan decoration —black front, red rear, white wheels—, Pezzutti became one of the most recognisable representatives of the Kit Car category on French roads, especially in asphalt events where the characteristics of the 306 Maxi —front engine, front-wheel drive, and competition suspension— were most effective. His driving style and the visual personality of his mount made this car a reference among classic rally enthusiasts, who today identify this livery immediately. The reproduction by Avant Slot perpetuates that legacy with the fidelity it deserves.
