Additional product description

Mattel has announced a 1:18 diecast model of Stirling Moss's winning Ferrari 250 SWB from the 1961 Goodwood Tourist Trophy. We are delighted that Stirling Moss will be signing a limited number of this replica for Diecast Legends.The Tourist Trophy was a three hour endurance race for GT cars. Moss arrived at the 1961 event with the aim of taking his fifth consecutive victory in this prestigious event. The Ferrari 250 GT SWB, with its relatively low weight, powerful 276 bhp engine, well sorted suspension, and disc brakes, was the perfect tool for the job. But Mike Parkes, who was also driving a 250 GT SWB, made sure that Stirling had his hands full. Eventually Moss went on to win by a lap after Parkes wore out his rear tyres too quickly. Of course, Mattel's 1;18 replica of the Rob Walker Ferrari 250 GT SWB replica will include opening doors, bonnet, and boot, and working steering. It will also have all the accuracy and attention to detail you would expect. Mattel will make sure, for example, that the roundel on the car is the correct light blue.
