About the Ferrari 250 GTO #172 Tour de France 1964 Bburago 1:18

TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast Ferrari 250 GTO #172 recreates a Tour de France Automobile entry, the demanding multi-stage rally that tested GT cars across circuits and public roads through the 1960s. Only 36 250 GTOs were ever built, and this diecast brings that rare competition car within reach of any Ferrari collection.

The Tour de France Automobile mixed circuit racing with long road stages across the country, a format that punished fragile machinery, and the 250 GTO's combination of speed and durability suited it perfectly.

Bburago's Accessible Route Into 250 GTO Ownership

An original 250 GTO sits among the most valuable competition cars ever built, which makes Bburago's diecast interpretation genuinely useful: it is the only realistic way most collectors will ever own a version of this shape at 1:18. The zinc alloy body carries real heft, doors typically open on Bburago's line, and the red bodywork with the #172 racing number and period sponsor detailing is applied cleanly enough to read well from typical shelf distance. Panel gaps run wider than a hand-built resin alternative would allow, and the finish trades some ultimate line sharpness for a price that puts the car within reach of far more collections.

The Tour de France Automobile and GT Racing Pedigree

The Tour de France Automobile was one of the most punishing events on the 1960s GT racing calendar, combining circuit races with long road stages across France in a single multi-day contest that tested reliability as much as outright speed. Ferrari's 250 GTO, developed specifically to win GT class competition, proved well suited to exactly this kind of demanding, varied format. Only 36 250 GTOs were built in total, a scarcity that has only grown its reputation over the decades since, and every surviving example carries some slice of that competition history.

A Rare Racer Made Reachable

For a Ferrari or GT-racing themed shelf, this 250 GTO offers genuine competition pedigree at a price that lets a collector actually afford the shape, rather than saving for a resin or investment-tier alternative.
