Description

Discover the iconic Team Lotus Type 91 from the 1982 season, a masterpiece developed by Peter Wright and Martin Ogilvie. Known for its stunning body lines and advanced engineering, this model car kit celebrates a significant piece of racing history. The Type 91, with its carbon composite monococque made of nomex honeycomb and kevlar-reinforced carbon fiber, showcases the innovative spirit of Team Lotus. Despite the era's shift towards turbocharged engines, Team Lotus excelled with the naturally-aspirated Ford Cosworth DFV engines, thanks to the car's superior strength and lightness. This model also features reinforced suspension arms, uprights, and a gearbox casing to enhance cornering performance. The adjustable wheelbase and front track, along with the introduction of a new pull rod-type suspension, highlight the car's adaptability to different race courses.

Elio de Angelis and Nigel Mansell debuted the Type 91 at the Brazilian GP, with Mansell securing a third-place finish in its maiden race and a fourth place in Monaco. De Angelis's memorable win at the Austrian GP marked a significant victory for Team Lotus, being the first win since the 1978 Netherland GP and the last victory under Colin Chapman's leadership. This model commemorates the 150th victory for the Ford Cosworth DFV engine and the end of an era for Lotus cars.

In addition to its rich history, this model kit is meticulously crafted with attention to detail, featuring gray, black, smoke, and chrome-colored plastic parts. Soft racing-type tires and decals are included to recreate the iconic look of the Type 91. Whether you're a model car enthusiast or a fan of Formula 1 history, this kit is a must-have addition to your collection.
