VW ID-R Press 2018 by Spark
Designed to tackle the mighty Pike's Peak hillclimb in Colorado, VW's ID-R prototype is an all electric prototype racer. The electric power means that it wouldn't suffer the power dropping off that combustion engines do as the altitude increases and it proved to be a successful design. Here we see the car as it appeared at the press launch. The Pike's Peak race version is coming soon. SPKPP018

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.
