A chance to acquire 6 1:43 scale diecast GT cars from a classic era that is re-lived in the modern day Goodwood Revival race meetings.
Many regard the archetypal GT car as a closed (fixed head) coupe as opposed to a convertible.
The Lancia Aurelia included in this selection is singled out as the car that launched the post war GT trend, establishing the sloping fastback as a GT hallmark. The Solido model included here comes superbly presented in its own collector's tin. Some of the other models are photographed on this tin but only the Lancia is supplied in Tin packaging.
Another thoroughbred car of the 50's was the legendary Mercedes 300SL with its striking gullwing doors. Note: The model you receive of the 300SL in this collection may vary from the photo in terms of colour & packaging but it will be similar in quality to that illustrated.
The Jaguar E type Fixed Head Coupe introduced in the early 60's is arguably the best looking GT Coupe of all time. The british racing green example included here is made by Diagostini and presented in a bubble pack.
Similarly the Aston Martin DB4 from the same period is by the same model maker and again bubble packaged.
The Italians being credited with their country as the birthplace of the GT, are well represented here and an Alfa Romeo had to accompany the Lancia in this offer.
It is the Giulia Sprint GTA, a 1960's successor to the 50's Giulietta which itself was a contemporary of the Lancia Aurelia. A nicely detailed model mounted on a plastic plinth in bubble packaging. Please note: The bubble packages for the Alfa models in this well intentioned offer are quite badly crushed (see photo) However your model inside will be in as new condition. It would be an idea to transfer this model to a display cabinet or a perspex type box.
Finally, a collection of GT thoroughbred cars would not be the same without a Ferrari. The model in this collection is the Dino 246GT of the early 70's. This model, made by Norev is presented in a card box and is quite crude & disappointing, more of a child's toy. It could be improved by some super-detailing.
You receive all 6 of these classic Gran Turismo cars for your low buy if now price.
