Anyone know anything about this model???

[Gareth350]

It's (I believe ) was made for Ford Directors in Europe like the Callender Colection pewter cars in 1/43 this however is much bigger and not pewter and very heavy

Plinth 15" long
Car is 13.5" long
Car is 5" wide

No makers markings on the car or plinth other than a plaque saying
Ford Probe V No 454




Anyone know anything about it & what it could be worth / rarity etc?

Many thanks in advance!

Not one of those paint sample things, is it?

Believe Minichamps (Pauls Model Art) made the original mould in 1:18, then they were hand made to 1:14 scale! Given out to Ford Directors around Europe in 1988. Has the original box & certificate of authenticity but just marked 'Ford' Thats all i've found out so far!

Not so much about the model but about the car itself, it looks like the Probe V was supposed to be some sort of Eco test bed car, what the Probe actually became, was garbage.
