1961 Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Diecast Car Red Diecast Model 1/18 Die Cast Car By CMC

The 250 was one of the most significant cars in the history of Ferrari. It was the first car built in (relatively) large numbers and included many variants during its lifetime from 1952 to 1964. The 250 GT Berlinetta SWB was introduced in 1959 and about 250 were built during the next three years, both road and full-race versions.

CMC's offering is a beautiful 1/18 th scale model of the luxuary edition of the road car built in 1961. Like the BBR Ferrari Enzo, it continues the trend of 1/18th scale models produced in China to an ever increasing quality standard at an afforadable price. The details are amazing: complete replica of the engine with all pipes and cables, padded leather seats, carpeted floor and boot, flip-up petrol cap, screwable wheel nut for removing wheels and removable spare wheels in the boot, exact replica of the underbody, wheel suspension with coil springs and shock absorbers, metal front grille, rubber wiper blades, ect. --Model Collector
