Presenting one of the most beautiful and iconic Formula One racing car of the 1970s, recreated in 1:8 scale car model kit by Pocher. The magical combination between Brazillan wonder kid Emerson Fittipaldi and designer Colin Champman, introduced one of the most successful cars in Formula 1. During 1970 to 1975, the Lotus 72D went on to win 20 races over six different seasons.

Its distinctive wedge-like design possessed advanced aerodynamics which was years ahead of its rivals. With a legendary Ford Cosworth DFV 3.0 V8 engine and the car's slipstreamed design, the Lotus 72D could produce higher top speeds while also creating more downforce for higher cornering speeds. The Lotus 72 is seen by many to be the most beautiful, innovative and iconic Formula One racing car of the 1970s.

Powered by a just as legendary engine - the Ford Cosworth DFV 3.0 V8 - the Lotus mated the power of this world beating engine with handling that left the rest of the field behind. This amazing Pocher model features detail from the monocoque chassis right up, through the suspension and engine components to the incredibly detailed cockpit. All logos are faithfully recreated and with real rubber tyres this impressive 1:8 model will become the star of any collection of motorsport heroes, famous cars, or pieces of art.

The finished model measures out at an incredible 523mm long, with a width of 235mm. Certainly the star of any collection.
