Aston Martin V12 Vantage #7 U. Bez / Porritt / R. Meaden / Mathai 24 Hours Nurburgring 2009 Minichamps 1:43
1/4
Minichamps' 1:43 diecast reproduces the #7 Aston Martin V12 Vantage from the 2009 24 Hours Nurburgring, again driven in part by Ulrich Bez. A GT3-class casting well suited to an Aston Martin endurance racing collection.
About the Aston Martin V12 Vantage #7 U. Bez / Porritt / R. Meaden / Mathai 24 Hours Nurburgring 2009 Minichamps 1:43
TL;DR: This Minichamps 1:43 diecast reproduces the #7 Aston Martin V12 Vantage from the 2009 24 Hours Nurburgring, continuing the marque's factory-backed programme from the previous year's V8 Vantage entry. A zinc-alloy GT3 casting for an Aston Martin motorsport shelf.
Aston Martin's step up from the V8 to V12 Vantage for endurance racing brought considerably more power to the same GT3 platform, and the 2009 Nurburgring entry kept the same driver line-up that anchored the previous season.
A GT3-Spec V12 Vantage in 1:43
The V12 Vantage's longer bonnet and larger front air intakes distinguish it from the V8-powered predecessor, and Minichamps reflects those proportions accurately against the earlier casting in the same range. Tampo-printed livery keeps sponsor branding and the #7 roundel sharp against the zinc alloy body. Detail is proportionate to the price point, fixed panels and a simplified cockpit, standard practice at this scale, but the wide-arch GT3 silhouette carries the subject convincingly. The 1:43 format suits a multi-year Nurburgring programme particularly well, letting successive seasons of the same team's entries sit together.
Tracing Aston Martin's GT3 Programme Year by Year
Displayed beside the 2008 V8 Vantage N24 entry from the same driver group, this V12 Vantage shows the visible progression in Aston Martin's factory-backed endurance effort across consecutive seasons. It also works within a broader GT3 collection spanning multiple marques. At this tier, subject and livery accuracy remain the strongest arguments for the piece, and paired with its predecessor it tells a genuinely coherent programme story.
