078 Auto Union Grand Prix Type C Racing Car<br />

One of our<br />

greatest successes.<br />

With its 16-cylinder mid-engine, the Auto Union GP Type C racing car is one of the most successful<br />

of racing cars. It was piloted by such legendary drivers as Bernd Rosemeyer and Hans-Joachim<br />

Stuck. An example was 1936, where they won all of the mountain races that Auto Union entered.<br />

They even went on to win three of five Grand Prix titles and took first place in half of all that year’s<br />

circuit races. What’s more, over 30 world records were set in the Type C.<br />

A racing legend has been brought back to life in a strictly limited edition of 999 (handcrafted).<br />

The exclusive design model impresses with its high-quality workmanship and material and an<br />

exemplary attention to detail. At a scale of 1 : 2, it brings automotive history to life. More than<br />

900 individual components were developed and assembled exclusively for this exceptional<br />

collector’s car with chain drive. This eye-catching design model is built on a stable aluminium<br />

tubular space frame. And the aluminium panel body mounted on it is produced exclusively at<br />

<strong>Audi</strong> Toolmaking.
