Bentley Continental GT3 Ring 2017 #36 by Spark
Bentley Continental GT3 Nurburgring 2017 #38
Also available SPKSG309 #36 & SPKSG310 #37
These three Bentleys were the marque’s complete representation in the Nurburgring 24 Hours and all were run by the Abt team. The red #36 machine looked to be the team leader with three very experienced drivers on board, while the two yellow machines had pro-am teams, but in the end it was the #37 car which was first of them home. Although the colours differ, the design of the liveries is similar on all with a fade into black at the rear. This looks to have been airbrushed rather than applied as decal and has been very neatly done. The base model we have seen many times under both Spark and TrueScale branding and is well proportioned as ever with fine detail parts for the wings etc. There is a fair amount of carbon decal and over the rear windscreens a very fine anti-glare mesh.

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.
