The Scalextric Austin Mini Metro 6R4 #BP (Model C392) is a vintage 1/32 scale analogue slot car produced by Scalextric in the late 1980s. It replicates the iconic Austin MG Metro 6R4 rally car decorated in the classic green and yellow British Petroleum (BP) racing livery.
Key Specifications & Features
Model Code: C392.
Scale: 1/32 scale, designed to run on standard analogue tracks.
Livery: BP sponsorship (typically features racing #17 decals).
Drive System: Traditional analogue motor set-up with rear-wheel drive.
Tyre Type: Originally equipped with standard Scalextric Small Super Slix tyres (part number S.9748).
Collector & Maintenance Tips
Compatibility: Runs natively on all standard vintage and modern Scalextric analogue track layouts. To use it on modern Scalextric Digital systems, it requires retrofitting a digital plug conversion kit.
Spare Parts: If you are restoring a vintage C392 model, replacement parts like high-grip aftermarket Super Slix tyres, pickup braids, and replacement wing mirrors are commonly traded on enthusiast platforms like eBay UK or specialized slot car forums. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Value: Unboxed or "spares/repair" condition models often trade at lower price tiers, while mint-condition, boxed versions with unattached detail bags (mirrors) command premium collector pricing
