About the McLaren F1 GTR #38 M. Duez / M. Soper / E. Lafitte Team Bigazzi 24 Hours of Le Mans 1996 UT Models 1:18

TL;DR: UT Models' 1:18 diecast McLaren F1 GTR reproduces car #38, Team Bigazzi's 1996 Le Mans entry, with opening doors. The model is new, never displayed, though the outer box shows traces of storage. A detailed replica of a landmark 1990s GT racer.

The McLaren F1 GTR turned a road-legal supercar into a Le Mans class winner within a single season, and its 1996 campaign remains one of the defining GT racing stories of the decade.

Diecast Craftsmanship on the UT Models F1 GTR

The doors on this model open on tight, well-fitted hinges, exposing the F1's distinctive central driving position and period-correct roll cage detailing, a genuine bonus for a subject whose cabin layout was itself part of the car's engineering story. The zinc-alloy body carries real weight, giving the low, wide GTR silhouette the density its aerodynamic shape suggests. Team Bigazzi's livery and sponsor decals are applied with clean, sharp registration, essential for a racing subject identified almost entirely by its paint scheme. Panel gaps around the opening doors run a touch wider than a sealed body would allow, an honest trade for genuine cabin access on a car whose interior is part of its appeal. This particular example is a new, unused model, though the outer box carries traces of storage from time in transit or on a shelf; the casting itself is unaffected.

The F1 GTR's Standing in 1990s Endurance Racing

Few road-car-derived racers have matched the F1 GTR's combination of speed and reliability, and the 1996 Le Mans field fielded several examples in a variety of liveries, making individual car numbers genuinely collectible. At roughly 24cm, this replica holds strong shelf presence and pairs naturally with other 1990s GT entries from Porsche and Ferrari. For collectors building a Le Mans-themed display, car #38's Bigazzi livery adds a specific, well-documented chapter to that story.
