    This is the Jaguar D-Type No.11 Le Mans 24H 1958 “Mary” / A. Guelfi in 1:43 scale by Spark.The Jaguar D-Type #11 competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, entered by the French private team of Henri Peignaux and driven by André Guelfi and “Mary” (Jean‑Marie Brussin). Guelfi was a versatile gentleman racer of the post‑war era, while “Mary” was a French driver — rare for the day in a sport dominated by men — making their pairing especially memorable. The D‑Type itself was one of Jaguar’s most advanced sports racers, famous for its aerodynamic sleek bodywork and powerful straight‑six engine, which had led the marque to multiple wins earlier in the decade. However, by 1958 changing regulations had restricted engine size and eroded the D‑Type’s advantage, and the #11 car was involved in a fatal accident early in the race at the Dunlop Curve, underlining both the danger of Le Mans and how regulation shifts can quickly change a model’s competitiveness. Spark models are hand painted, decorated and assembled. Each model is created using a variety of production processes, such as hand cast resin, diecast and injected molded thermoplastics.Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Spark ensures the absolute best quality possible. Each model comes with its own acrylic display case.
