About the Bugatti Type 35 GP Poland 1924 CMC 1:18
TL;DR: CMC's 1:18 diecast Bugatti Type 35 reproduces the horseshoe-grille Grand Prix car in its Poland 1924 racing livery, with an opening hood over the straight-eight engine. This is a used model and the box shows traces of storage. A serious pre-war racing piece for a Grand Prix history collection.
The Type 35's horseshoe grille and polished alloy wheels made it one of the most instantly recognizable racing shapes of the 1920s, and CMC's build treats that shape with the detail a legendary racer deserves.
Diecast Construction and Engine-Bay Detail
CMC is known for building models with genuine part count and mechanical fidelity, and this Type 35 carries that approach into a diecast format rather than the resin CMC uses on some other subjects. The hood opens to reveal the straight-eight engine, a real feature given how much of the Type 35's engineering reputation rests on that engine's smoothness and reliability compared to rivals of its era. Zinc alloy construction gives the narrow, cigar-shaped body real weight, and the trademark cast-alloy wheels, a genuine engineering first for the period, are rendered with the fine spoke detail the original design is known for. Being a used piece, expect light wear consistent with handling; the storage marks concern the box alone.
The Type 35's Grand Prix Dominance
Ettore Bugatti's Type 35 is widely regarded as one of the most successful racing cars ever built, winning a remarkable volume of races and championships across Europe through the mid-to-late 1920s. Its combination of light weight, a smooth straight-eight engine, and Bugatti's own cast-alloy wheel design gave it an edge that let it compete successfully across multiple Grand Prix formats and hillclimbs throughout the decade. Liveried examples tied to specific national Grand Prix events, like this Poland-associated scheme, reflect just how widely the Type 35 campaigned across the European racing calendar of the period.
Positioning This Type 35 in a Collection
This model anchors a pre-war Grand Prix or Bugatti-themed display convincingly, its narrow, purposeful shape standing apart from bulkier contemporary racers. Posing the hood open shows off the straight-eight that made the Type 35's racing record possible. Its used condition at this price makes serious pre-war racing history genuinely attainable.
