    This is the Lotus 12 #40 1958 Belgium GP Cliff Allison Limited Edition 100 Pieces in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.​At the 1958 Belgian Grand Prix, held at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit, Cliff Allison drove the #40 Lotus 12 for Team Lotus. This race was significant as it marked both Allison’s and Lotus’s first points in the Formula One World Championship. Allison finished fourth, showcasing his skill and the potential of the Lotus 12 despite its challenges. The Lotus 12, designed by Colin Chapman, featured innovative elements like a lightweight space frame and magnesium alloy wheels, but it was hindered by the unreliable “Queerbox” gearbox. Allison’s performance at Spa highlighted his talent and contributed to Lotus’s emergence in Formula One.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. ​
