The Italeri 4702 1/12 Fiat 806 Grand Prix kit recreates a milestone racing car from 1927, known for its advanced engineering and potent 180 HP 12-cylinder engine. The model captures the vehicle that helped shape modern Grand Prix design and performance, with period top speeds above 240 km/h.
The kit emphasises the powertrain and mechanical authenticity, featuring a finely modelled engine viewable through an opening bonnet and a steering system that articulates for realistic display setups.
The Fiat 806 employed a unique chassis arrangement that integrated the engine and gearbox between structural members to improve dynamics. This build mirrors those choices to provide a rewarding challenge for experienced modellers.
