The green paint shown on the example of the regular 1100 is a bit too bright for the era, and the flake is also too strong - but apart from that, it’s still an accurate Swiss equivalent of the 356.

In 1956 Wagner Motors built the 1500 RS, a sports car to seek victory in the category up to 1500 cc, and entrusted it to its new official team.

The main innovations compared to the production cars are:
The 4-cylinder boxer engine increased to 1.5 L and centrally mounted.
The new space frame.

The project proved to be a winner in fact the 1500 RS obtained the prestigious class victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the 1000 Km of Nurburing.

                                   The day of decision

**
1963 was an important year in the history of Wagner Motorwerke because it was undecided whether to build a totally new car model or to continue updating the existing chassis and mechanics.
Eventually a compromise will be reached which envisages updating the existing chassis but updating the mechanics by producing a new 2000cc 6-cylinder boxer engine.
In 1965 the Wagner 2000 was presented.

Since making its racing debut, the 2000 RS has won numerous hill climbs. In any case intended above all for the endurance races of the World Sport Prototype Championship, it performed well in competitions of this type, in particular at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, where it conquered 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th place in the 1966 edition behind the Ford GT40, with a much larger engine capacity.
