Model champion
If you’ve looked at the Santander/Abbey advert on TV and wished you could build your own Lewis Hamilton model, Airfix has answered your wish.
The new Vodafone McLaren Mercedes Airfix kit lets you build the Formula 1 championship-winning car complete with Hamilton at the wheel in his distinctive Ayrton Senna helmet.
The kit does not require glue and is pre-painted. All you need is a small cross-head screwdriver to assemble the 17 parts into a model 148mm long.
“Following on from the success of the Santander TV advertising campaign there was much demand for us to create a kit that would be to market by Christmas this year,” said Airfix’s Darrell Burge. “We’ve managed to achieve this by using assets and knowledge within the Hornby team, and have come out with a product that should satisfy the collector and the casual purchaser, who both can achieve a fabulously finished product to be proud of.”
The Vodafone McLaren Mercedes Airfix kit is priced around £24.99.
