Inspired by the iconic motorsport colors of the 1960s, this edition is presented in a vibrant Chili Red, complemented by a white stripe that runs from the hood over the roof to the rear. An exclusive distinguishing feature of this edition is the white "52" lettering on both sides of the vehicle – a tribute to the starting number of the historic winning car from 1965. The Glazed White roof – optionally available as a panoramic glass roof – provides a clean, sporty, and elegant contrast to the bodywork.
A subtle "1965" sticker on the C-pillar draws the eye and stylishly highlights the historic year of victory. The 18-inch JCW Lap Spoke 2-tone alloy wheels ensure optimal performance and confident handling. Additionally, the edition-specific wheel hub and valve covers echo the rally-inspired color scheme and add further visual accents.
Upon entering, the striking door sills immediately catch the eye, featuring a white "1965" inscription on a red and black background, lending the cockpit an exclusive touch. Additionally, each model in this edition bears a special inscription on the inside of the door, reflecting the events of the rally of that era.
The roof, available exclusively in Glazed White, makes a brilliant design statement and underscores the sporty character of this edition. The elegant color contrast with the bodywork gives the exterior an extraordinary presence that immediately draws attention. Combined with the panoramic glass roof, this creates a harmonious overall impression, filling the interior with light-filled spaciousness.
