#676 Scalextric - Sigma (Ref. 4047) (1973)

One of the get-go models I had inward my collection, belonged genuinely to my manful somebody bring upwards or my uncle, in addition to survived several years until I got it inward 1990 together amongst the white Porsche Carrera shown inward a previous entry. Other cars, similar about one-time Mercedes didn´t.

The Sigma model was designed past times Pininfarina inward 1969 over the chassis of a Ferrari 312 V12 (a F1 model). It incorporated several safety features. It never raced, because it was non intended to produce that, only due to its futuristic blueprint it became really pop inward publications or every bit a toy.

Scalextric´s Sigma was non really accurate. The spoiler it is every bit good high in addition to the automobile it a chip narrower every bit the original, only nonetheless really impressive. It was available inward 3 colours: yellow, orangish in addition to white. I entirely convey the xanthous one, twice. The master i described above, in addition to about other i boxed I got later. The get-go I got had no mirrors, then I had to purchase repro ones, only the mo is was complete.

H5N1 typical employment inward this automobile is that the spikes ot the spoiler are really oftentimes broken. In the model inward the film these ii spikes are broken (see film above, right). The exhaust pipes are also fragile, since they stand upwards to a higher house the torso of the car

The automobile was really interesting for contest because it is really depression in addition to really stable inward the curves in addition to has long axles, then it is already really fast, doesn´t postulate much changes to live a winner.
