This is the Porsche 911S Coupe (night version) #18 1979 Rally Portugal in 1:43 scale by Trofeu.

The Porsche 911S Coupe #18, driven by Américo Nunes and António Morais, took on the grueling 1979 Rally Portugal, an event notorious for its treacherous mix of tarmac and gravel stages. Known as "The Maestro" in Portuguese rallying, Nunes was a highly skilled privateer who consistently pushed the limits of the 911S against top competitors. The night stages of Rally Portugal were particularly challenging, with poor visibility, unpredictable road conditions, and massive crowds lining the roads, creating an electrifying yet dangerous atmosphere. This edition of the rally was part of the golden era of Group 4 rallying, where the Porsche 911 proved its versatility and endurance against emerging all-wheel-drive contenders.
