About the Ferrari F40 #40 T. Ohta / A. Reid Taisan Red 1987 Bburago 1:18

TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast Ferrari F40 reproduces car #40 in Taisan Red, driven by T. Ohta and A. Reid, a livery tied to the Taisan Racing team's presence in Japanese GT competition during the F40's era. Entry-tier diecast construction gives collectors an accessible way into Japanese GT racing history.

Taisan Racing built a real reputation in Japanese GT circles during this era, and its involvement with exotic European machinery gives this particular F40 livery a genuinely different flavour from the standard road-going red.

A Japanese GT Racing Connection

This F40 carries car number 40, driven by T. Ohta and A. Reid under Taisan colours, a team known for running exotic machinery in period Japanese GT racing. That context matters for collectors interested in how the F40's competition career extended well beyond Ferrari's own factory-supported programmes, into privateer and regional teams around the world. The bright red livery with its period-correct sponsor decals gives this model a completely different character from a standard road car finish, closer in spirit to the F40's genuine competition history.

Bburago's Entry-Tier Take on a Race Livery

Bburago's diecast construction handles the added livery decals and race-spec details with the same opening-feature approach used across its F40 range, offering accessible pricing rather than boutique resin finish. For collectors building a Japanese motorsport theme, this Taisan car pairs naturally with other JGTC-era liveries, widening a display beyond the usual European road car versions of the same model.
