3rd April 2025 - CaDA's RUF Brick Models - News Homepage

Don't worry, the CaDA Bricks "1:12 RUF CTR Yellowbird (from 1987)" has an RRP of £69.99. One of the real-life cars, number 26 of just 29 made, recently sold at auction for $6 million dollars (£4.6 million) in March 2025. It was partly helped by having an extremely low odometer reading of 1,040 miles, while also having been meticulously looked after by both of its two former keepers.

This CaDA branded officially licensed RUF CTR 'Yellowbird' is a highly detailed brick model car made up of 1,515 pieces in 1:12 scale. The model is a faithful recreation of the original 1987 high performance sports car manufactured by RUF Automobile. It was based on Porsche's 911 Carrera 3.2 from 1987 because of the car's slightly lower kerb weight and drag coefficient. The 3.4 litre twin-turbocharged flat-six engine made 469bhp at 5,950rpm, while the light weight of 1,150kg allowed for a 0-62mph time of 3.65 seconds. The car was complimented with 17" RUF Speedline alloy wheels. This attractive brick model comes complete with stylish retail box packaging and would make an ideal gift for car lovers.
