Porsche 919 Hybrid 1st Le Mans 2017 #2 Bernhard/Bamber/Hartley by Spark
Porsche 919 Hybrid 1st Le Mans 2017
Alternative version SPK5801 #1
Although still a 919, Porsche’s 2017 Le Mans challenger was physically very different to the previous year’s winning machine. Regulation changes saw revisions to the nose and rear diffuser and on the main bodywork sides there is a distinct valley between the front fin and the rear bodywork. That body shape is all very crisply moulded, with thin insert pieces where necessary. The rear wing and dorsal fin are very delicately made and the overall finish is to a typically high standard and the decoration looks to be correctly placed.

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.
