This is the Ferrari 365 P2 Spyder Guards Trophy Brands Hatch 7° place 1965 #25 D. Piper in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The Ferrari 365 P2 Spyder #25, driven by David Piper, competed in the 1965 Guards Trophy at Brands Hatch, finishing 7th overall. Piper, a well-known British privateer, campaigned the 365 P2 — a striking V12‑powered prototype — under his own team, David Piper Auto Racing Ltd. The Guards Trophy was a non‑championship event run over two heats on the tight and technical Brands Hatch circuit. What makes this performance especially interesting is that Piper, running a privately entered car rather than for a factory team, managed to maintain a respectable pace over both heats. His consistent driving, paired with a relatively fragile prototype in its early season outings, highlighted how committed privateers like Piper could still compete at a high level even against better-funded rivals.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
