BRM P261 UK 1967 Irwin by Spark
Alternative version SPK4248 Stewart & SPK4249 Courage
Although entered by Reg Parnell Racing for the British GP, Chris Irwin found himself in Piers Courage’s works BRM for the race as reliability issues saw the BRM drivers involved in a game of musical chairs. The shape of the car and the decal placement look very good and the paint finish is excellent, although as ever we feel Spark’s BRM green (a very tricky colour) is perhaps a touch on the light side.

About Spark
The range which changed the 1:43 model market and for which we coined the term 'resincast'. Resin rather than traditional diecast bodies mean that relatively short production runs can be made and what might be marginal subjects become viable. Quality is very consistent with plenty of fine etch used where necessary. A huge range is the result, covering all aspects of (mostly postwar) motorsport and a wide variety of road cars. We typically see around 30 new subjects released per month and pre-orders are strongly recommended. Made in China & Madagascar.
