Otto Mobile 1/18 Renault Laguna BTCC 1997

The British Touring Car Championship has been around since 1958. It is one of the most famous and contested championships in Europe along with the DTM. In 1997, a French car driven by a Swiss caused a sensation: Alain Menu’s Renault Laguna. Vice-champion in 1994, 1995 and 1996, Menu finally won the top prize in 1997 after a near-perfect season. More than enough to honour the Williams Renault Dealer Racing team, which entered the official Renault Laguna in BTCC. Menu's car also became a video game star as it was featured on the cover of TOCA - Touring Car Championship on PC and Playstation 1. The first installment of the new Codemasters license crossed the years as a benchmark of the genre, and helped prolong the popularity of the Laguna de Menu throughout the years.
