Description
The Jaguar C-Type (Competition Type) achieved one of motorsport's greatest upsets when it won the 24 Hours of Le Mans at its first attempt in 1951, and repeated the victory in 1953 with the breakthrough Dunlop disc brakes that revolutionised racing technology. The 1953-winning car, driven by Tony Rolt and Duncan Hamilton after leader Peter Whitehead dropped out, completed 2,534.09 miles at an average speed of 105.59mph. CMC's legendary masterclass 1:18 diecast presents the Le Mans winner in iconic British Racing Green, reproducing the long-tailed aluminium bodywork, wire wheels, and race-specification detailing with CMC's extraordinary precision. Every rivet, louuvre, and panel line is faithfully rendered. Crafted from diecast metal with opening panels and fine engine detail. An outstanding collector centrepiece for Le Mans history enthusiasts.
