Jaguar XJR9 1st Le Mans 1988 #2 Wallace/Dumfries/Lammers by Spark
Jaguar XJR9 1st Le Mans 1988
Alternative version SPK4716 #22 SPK4717 #1 SPK4718 #3 & SPK4719 #21
Jaguar had five cars on the grid at Le Mans in 1988 and the first few hours of the race saw a battle royal between these and four works-supported Porsches. The target was of course the outright win and this was achieved by car #2, with #21 the third of the Jaguars home, albeit well down the running order. There were subtle changes to minor sponsors on the otherwise very similar Jaguars and those small decals are all correct here. The title sponsorship is not fitted, so a number of easily found decals will need to be applied to complete an otherwise very well finished model.

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.
