Matra MS120B 1971 Spain GP C. Amon Limited Edition in 1:18 scale
This is the Matra MS120B 1971 Spain GP C. Amon Limited Edition in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
At the 1971 Spanish Grand Prix, Chris Amon piloted the Matra MS120B, a sleek and innovative car known for its aerodynamic design and Matra’s characteristic V12 engine. Amon, a highly respected driver often dubbed “the best driver never to win a Grand Prix,” showcased his smooth driving style on the challenging Montjuïc Park Circuit. This race stood out for its demanding street layout, combining fast sections with tight corners, which tested both driver skill and car reliability. Despite fierce competition from dominant teams like Ferrari and Lotus, Amon’s performance in the MS120B highlighted Matra’s technical prowess and his own remarkable talent in extracting the maximum from a car that was sometimes fragile but fast when it held together.
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.
