Lancer

In 1998 Tecnitoys acquired the Tyco license for the marketing of Scalextric in Spain and debuted with a new model, the Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IV, with three different liveries with references 6000, 6001 and 6002. The model came with lights, four-wheel drive powered by a dual-axle motor and the novelty of a guide with suspension. Variants have been described as "made in Spain" and "made in China". Reference 6000 corresponds to this white model with red and grey "RALLY ART" stripes with #1 and decals of the crew Mäkinen / Harjanne. It is inspired by the car that with these drivers won the 1997 Rallye Catalunya - Costa Brava.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution was born in 1992 as the "homologation evolution" of the Lancer to replace the Galant VR-4 in rallying. The Evolution IV was launched in August 1996 with a completely redesigned platform and the engine rotated 180° for better weight distribution. In 1997 Tommi Mäkinen and Seppo Harjanne achieved first position in the 1997 Rallye Catalunya - Costa Brava with a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IV from the Mitsubishi Ralliart team. The Tecnitoys model is a replica of this car.
