About the Jaguar C-Type #18 T. Rolt / D. Hamilton 24 Hours of Le Mans Winner 1953 CMC 1:18

TL;DR: CMC's 1:18 diecast Jaguar C-Type reproduces the 1953 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning car of Rolt and Hamilton, famously the first Le Mans win achieved with disc brakes. Opening features, used model, box showing traces of storage. A landmark British motorsport subject.

Jaguar's 1953 Le Mans victory marked a genuine technical turning point, disc brakes proving decisive against drum-braked rivals over the race's closing hours, and this C-Type stands as one of the defining British racing successes of the post-war era.

Opening Panels on a Genuinely Historic Winner

This casting's doors and bonnet open, exposing engine bay and cabin detail rendered with the fidelity CMC applies to its most historically significant subjects. Handling those panels shows deliberate, engineered resistance rather than a loose swing, a mark of proper metal-hinge construction. The British Racing Green should show consistent, deep gloss across the C-Type's smoothly curved aluminium bodywork, and the diecast body's weight reflects CMC's part-intensive metal construction well above entry-level tolerances. As a used model, expect some handling wear on close inspection, and the outer box shows traces of storage rather than a pristine retail presentation.

A Cornerstone of British Motorsport Heritage

For a British collector, few subjects carry more direct national pride than a genuine Le Mans-winning Jaguar. Displayed within a British motorsport theme, alongside Aston Martins or later D-Types, this C-Type earns its place as a hero piece, and its opening features invite the close inspection a subject with this competition record fully deserves.
