This is the Lola T89 1989 Indy Car Mario Andretti Limited Edition in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The 1989 Lola T89, driven by Mario Andretti, represented the skill and determination of one of motorsport’s most versatile legends. By 1989, Andretti was already an IndyCar champion, Formula 1 World Champion, and Daytona 500 winner, yet he remained fiercely competitive in the CART IndyCar Series. That year, in the T89 powered by a turbocharged Chevrolet engine, Andretti demonstrated his trademark adaptability, delivering strong performances on road courses, street circuits, and ovals alike. A highlight came when he battled through a season marked by intense competition from both veterans and rising stars, with his experience allowing him to extract every ounce of speed from the Lola chassis. This season was notable as it showed Andretti’s enduring ability to remain a threat in top-level racing well into his late 40s.
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.
