Details

Le Mans Miniatures Bugatti Type 59 No.16 French GP 1934.

This is the latest release of what many believe to be one of the most detailed slot car models of all time, the Le Mans Miniatures pre-war Bugatti type 59 Grand Prix car.

This version is the No.16 car as raced by Robert Benoist that he drove to 4th place in the 1934 French GP held at Montlhery circuit just outside Paris.

The body is the racing version of the T59 (without the riveted edge in the middle) but with a tonneau cover on the passenger side. The straps that hold the front cover are black and there is a border around the digits of the number 16. The blades of the gas caps at the rear of the driver are smaller and the caps are higher.

The 1934 French Grand Prix took place on July 1st and marks the return of Mercedes-Benz to Grand Prix racing after 20 years, with an all-new car, team, management and drivers, led by Alfred Neubauer. This effort is heavily funded by Hitler's Third Reich. Seventeen cars are entered by 5 factory teams plus Scuderia Ferrari which enters 3 Alfa Romeos, 4 are non-runners. Only four cars finished the race, including the 3 Alfas on the podium and Robert Benoist's No.16 Bugatti T59.
