BBR Ferrari 250 GTO 24h Le Mans 1964 S/N 4399 GT Car No. 25 | 1:18

The 32nd edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans took place on 20 and 21 June 1964 on the Circuit de la Sarthe. The traditional circuit had been modified following the tragic events of 1955 and shortened to a length of 13.461 kilometres to increase safety in the pit lane. The race marked the ninth round of the then-Sports Car World Championship and was characterised by a historic rivalry: after a takeover attempt had failed the previous year, Ford challenged the Italian manufacturer directly on the track – the beginning of the well-known duel between Ford and Ferrari.

This miniature documents the car with chassis number 4399 GT, piloted by Innes Ireland and Tony Maggs for the British team Maranello Concessionaires. Notable historical details of this specific version include the white front end and the blue wheels. The driver duo finished the demanding endurance race in sixth place overall. The precise craftsmanship accurately reflects the aerodynamic and technical features of the original, making the model an authentic testament to 1960s motorsport history.
