Subaru Impreza 555 #3 B. Fisher/R. Kennedy - Winner Carling Rally of the Lakes 1994 in 1:18 scale
This is the Subaru Impreza 555 #3 B. Fisher/R. Kennedy - Winner Carling Rally of the Lakes 1994 in 1:18 scale by Sun Star.
The Subaru Impreza 555 #3, driven by Bertie Fisher and co-driver Rory Kennedy, won the 1994 Carling Rally of the Lakes in Ireland, giving Fisher his fifth consecutive victory on the event. Fisher was one of Ireland’s most successful rally drivers, renowned for his speed on the demanding Irish tarmac stages, while Kennedy was his highly experienced navigator and long-time partner. The Impreza 555 was particularly significant because this was Fisher and Kennedy’s first Rally of the Lakes with the Impreza, replacing their previous Subaru Legacy RS. Its compact Group A design featured permanent four-wheel drive, a turbocharged 2.0-liter flat-four boxer engine, advanced differentials, and a lighter, more agile chassis than the larger Legacy. The car’s combination of traction, balance, and turbocharged power made it exceptionally well suited to the fast, challenging Kerry mountain roads and helped establish the Impreza 555 as a dominant force in Irish rallying.
This exquisite diecast model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish.
Other features include:
● Extremely Detailed Engine
● Moveable and Steerable Front Wheels
● Accurate and highly detailed Interior and Chassis
● Opening Doors, Trunk, and Hood
