In short

The ST185 Celica GT-Four — Toyota's WRC Group A homologation weapon of 1989–1993 — captured in 1:18 die-cast by IXO Models as car No. 97, piloted by Latvala and Hänninen at the 2024 Arctic Lapland Rally.

Toyota's ST185 Celica GT-Four belongs in the short list of Group A cars that genuinely shaped WRC history. Its appearance at the 2024 Arctic Lapland Rally, wearing number 97 and a yellow livery in the hands of two Finnish motorsport figures, makes it a compelling subject for a 1:18 scale model — one that bridges a celebrated rally era with a contemporary Lapland stage.

The ST185: Toyota's Group A Homologation Machine

Introduced in 1989 as the successor to the ST165, the third-generation Celica GT-Four was engineered around Group A WRC homologation requirements. Its 3S-GTE 2.0-litre turbocharged inline-four powered both road and competition variants, with rally-prepared cars pushing significantly beyond 300 hp. Permanent four-wheel drive was standard. The ST185 platform underpinned Toyota's WRC Manufacturers' Championship victories in 1993 and 1994, before giving way to the ST205 for the 1995 season.

Car No. 97: Latvala, Hänninen and the Arctic Lapland Rally 2024

Jari-Matti Latvala — former WRC factory driver and Team Principal of Toyota Gazoo Racing World Rally Team — is a regular presence at historic demonstration runs using classic Toyota WRC machinery. Juho Hänninen, a Finnish rally driver with his own Toyota Gazoo Racing history, co-drives alongside him. Their pairing in car No. 97 at the 2024 Arctic Lapland Rally, held in Lapland where historic demonstrations are an established feature of the programme, connects two generations of Finnish rally culture through the same cockpit and the same yellow livery.
