Citroen C-Elysee WTCC Champion 2016 Lopez
Alternative version SPK3096 Muller SPK5097 Chilton SPK5098 Bennani & SPK5099 Demoustier
Jose-Maria Lopez had a near perfect record in the WTCC, winning the title in each of his three full seasons with Citroen. The title had been settled long before the final round of 2016 and his car appeared in the final round at Qatar bearing “Champions” logos on the doors and as this was also Citroen’s last WTCC meeting as a manufacturer, a montage of portraits of their drivers over the roof and bonnet. The decals are clearly printed and neatly applied over a bright red paint finish. A finely made rear wing is wrapped in carbon, as is the front splitter and lower floor sides.

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.
