Please note that this lot will need to be collected from Montreux, Switzerland.

Presented here is a model of the Lotus 49 that was driven to victory in the 1968 British Grand Prix by Jo Siffert, which was the first Formula 1 victory by a Swiss driver. Exceptionally detailed, it would be an excellent addition to any collection.

Also offered here is a model of the 1968 Matra MS11 that was driven in the 1968 Italian Grand Prix by Jean-Pierre Beltoise. In that race, Beltoise finished 5th overall. This is a beautiful model of an iconic French Formula 1 car.
