205 GTI

In March 1984, Peugeot presented at the Geneva Motor Show the model that, a few months later, would become the king of popular sports cars internationally: we are talking about the Peugeot 205 GTI 1.6.

95

Last week we talked about the Guinness World Record for collecting scale model cars, and today we're going to talk about another collector, although with a small but interesting twist: he collects 1:1 scale racing vehicles...

Goldvarg

Is there a Guinness World Record for scale model cars? We're all convinced it isn't... Well yes, there is one, and Sergio Goldvarg has achieved it several times, since thanks to his passion he has built a collection of no less than 20,000 model cars, some of them unique pieces, as the result of his love for the world of miniature motors since he was just a child.

Fulvia HF

The Lancia Fulvia HF was a true all-forward performer, with the twin-carburettor V-4 engine and gearbox mounted forward before the cabin. Despite being a front-wheel drive car, the Group 4 Lancia Fulvia HF 1600, homologated on October 1st 1969, came to dominate the World Rally Championship, winning several events with drivers including Sandro Munari.

Beta Montecarlo Turbo

The most veteran of us still remember when, in 1979, the now-defunct Esci brand launched the 1/24 scale model of the Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo with the Alitalia livery and the Giro d'Italia number plates. Years later, it was reissued with two other liveries, and since then, we've only been able to access this model by digging deep in the complicated second-hand market.

Pikes 1987

How long have we been waiting for this moment! Months! What am I saying, not months, but years of waiting! And finally, a transkit to reproduce the iconic and brutal Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2 with which Walter Röhrl won the 1987 Pikes Peak edition, while also breaking the race record in the process. :D

Low grip

This time we're not going to tell you anything about the importance of tires in competition, nor about the different rubber compounds, nor about the problems and advantages that the lack of grip can cause... This time we're going to talk about the low grip on SpotModel stickers. ;)

ZX-10RR

If the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R was already a brutal machine, what can we say about the Ninja ZX-10RR? A superbike of which only 500 units have been produced, and which raises the bar for "Ninjas" even further.

Original Race Pictures

With this sexy title, Komakai introduces a new series of books that promise to be absolutely delightful and essential for all modelers. According to their description, the Original Race Pictures collection is an extension of their highly interesting photo books of real-life car and motorcycle details, where all the images are original from the period. And as if that weren't enough, many of the pictures have never been published before! :D
