Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT LM (2008 Le Mans) - 1:43 Scale Model Car by Spark

• 1:43 Scale (approximately four inches in length)
• Resin body, features no opening parts
• Comes with acrylic dust cover and display base

The first 35 years of Lamborghini's history saw almost no activity in organized motorsport, but that changed in the 2000s thanks to the involvement of Reiter Engineering, a German race car manufacturer that developed the Italian supercar into a formidable track weapon. One of their earliest efforts was the Murcielago R-GT, a car that found limited success in international GT racing. In the hands of Russian team IPB Spartak Racing, the Murcielago R-GT would context the GT1 category of the 2008 24 Hours of Le Mans, though lack of overall pace would consign the Lambo to a non-categorized finish.

A fascinating footnote in Le Mans history, the IPB Spartak Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT LM is now the subject of a highly detailed 1:43-scale resin replica by Spark Models. Its simple white livery is accented by crisply rendered sponsorship tampos and fine details such as accurately scaled wing uprights and prominent rear diffuser.
