****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY.**** Diecast 1:18 scale model Bugatti T35 1924 blue. An ingenious eccentric, Ettore Bugatti started his factory in Molsheim, Alsace, and set the pace for the young automobile industry when he himself was still young. With his ground-breaking Type 35 in 1924, he created the superior racing car of his era, which would become the inspiration for many other models. Type 35 had its GP premiere at the European GP of Lyon/France on 3rd of August in 1924. Today the Bugatti Type 35 remains the unparalleled record holder of 1,851 documented victories. Since all these victories were scored within the short period of 1924 through 1927, the Type 35 is the most successful 8-cylinder in-line engine and racing car of all times. Nicknamed "Le Patron", Ettore Bugatti is remembered as one of the most valued automobile engineers. Take a close look at our model and be transported back to a world of extraordinary design and elegance in the 1920s – the world of Ettore Bugatti. Hand-assembled from 926 parts, this miniature, GP racing version (without an additional spare wheel), takes a lot of experience and love of details to create. It is a fine example of the authentic replication and superior craftsmanship that only CMC can bring to you. The trademark horse-shoe cooler, the spoke wheels made of aluminum cast, and the rectangular box-shaped engine – these are just a few characteristics that make the car so very special.
