This is the Aston Martin DBR1 No.6 2nd Le Mans 24H 1959 Trintignant/Frere in 1:18 scale by Spark.
The Aston Martin DBR1 No. 6 that finished 2nd overall at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans was driven by Maurice Trintignant and Paul Frère, two experienced endurance racers who kept a strong, consistent pace throughout the grueling race. Designed by Ted Cutting for pure competition with a lightweight multi‑tube chassis, all‑aluminium bodywork and a potent 3.0 L straight‑six engine, the DBR1 was one of the most advanced sports racing cars of its era and helped Aston Martin secure both 1st and 2nd place that year against fierce Ferrari competition. Its result was notable not just for reliability over 24 hours but also as part of Aston Martin’s only overall Le Mans victory, making the No. 6 car a standout in endurance racing history.
