Scale and Level of Detail

Avant Slot is one of the leading brands in the manufacture of 1:32 scale resin slot cars, and this 306 Maxi is a good example of why. The aggressive silhouette of the French Kit Car —with its wide bumpers, flared arches, and competition rear wing— is captured accurately from every angle. The matte finish of the dark blue prevents reflections that detract from the graphics, and the Red Bull colours —red, yellow, and silver— pop vibrantly against that dark base. The contrast with the yellow of Bardahl completes a livery that is unmistakable on the track.

The names of S. Loeb and D. Elena printed on the windows, along with the Sebastien Loeb Racing sign on the wing, elevate the authenticity of the piece and make it a collectible item suitable for display as well as for racing.

Track Performance

Avant Slot designs its rally models to offer a good balance between replica fidelity and performance on the circuit. The 1:32 scale ensures compatibility with most tracks on the market. If you have any questions about the best guide, braid, or tyre configuration for your sections, Ministry of Hobby can guide you to get the most out of the model.

Ideal for…

• Collectors of historic and modern rally cars in 1:32 scale.
• Slot enthusiasts looking for models with official and detailed liveries.
• Fans of Sébastien Loeb and French rally motorsport.
• Slot clubs wanting to incorporate replicas of real events into their car fleet.

Aspects to Consider

This model reproduces a very specific livery —that of the 2021 Rally Montblanc Morzine— so its availability is limited. As it is a themed edition from Avant Slot, we recommend not delaying if you have already decided to purchase. Spare parts and preparation accessories compatible with Avant Slot models are available in our catalogue.

History: Sébastien Loeb and the 2021 Rally Montblanc Morzine

The Rally Montblanc Morzine is one of the most beloved asphalt events on the French rally calendar. Held in the vicinity of the Mont Blanc massif, with technical and spectacular stages on alpine asphalt, the event has a long tradition and attracts a loyal and knowledgeable audience.

In the 2021 edition, Sébastien Loeb —nine-time world rally champion with Citroën— returned to drive a Peugeot 306 Maxi, the legendary Kit Car with which the lion brand dominated the WRC in the mid-nineties. By his side, as on so many occasions throughout his career, Daniel Elena served as co-driver. The image of Loeb behind the wheel of this 306 with Red Bull and Bardahl livery, attacking the alpine stages with the same determination as always, generated enormous excitement among French fans and a torrent of photographs on social media.

The Peugeot 306 Maxi is a special car in rally history. Developed by Peugeot Sport and unveiled in 1996, the 306 Maxi was specifically designed for the asphalt events of the French rally championship and the legendary Monte Carlo Rally. With an extended body, double wishbone suspension, and a 2.0 atmospheric engine pushed to its limits, the 306 Maxi was a formidable weapon in expert hands. Seeing it back in action, with Loeb at the helm and a livery as powerful as that of Red Bull, was a gift for fans of both classic and modern motorsport. Avant Slot has successfully captured that moment in this reference AV52803.
