The U-9 Grand Prix Car model from the renowned model-making specialist Ugears will not only make true racing fans go into raptures: Even lovers of retro elements will certainly not be able to resist the unmistakable charm of this impressive racer.

The U-9 Grand Prix Car is the forerunner of today's Formula 1 car and is based on a real racing car from the Golden Age of the automobile industry, which was chronologically set in the early 20th century.

The impressive design of this "racing rocket" is already hard to beat in terms of elegance, but it is the many loving details that make this chic model a real eye-catcher on the desk or on the collector's shelf.

Built-in belt drive sets the sporty racing car in motion

Inside the Grand Prix model slumbers a true-to-the-original 8-cylinder V-racing engine, which is assisted by 16 fully functional valves and a powerful fan. An externally mounted belt drive sets the rubberised tyres in motion, which means that this model not only looks pretty, but can actually drive.

You can choose between the classic forward gear and an alternative reverse gear, and you can also indicate the desired direction via the rotating steering wheel. Alternatively, you can select the model's idle mode, which is also available: In this mode, you can watch the impressive work of the engine without the fancy racing car whizzing away from you.

Wooden models from Ugears - a guarantee for impeccable quality

The U-9 Grand Prix sports car model by Ugears consists of 348 individual parts, which in turn are made of high-quality wood from sustainable cultivation within Europe - something you can smell as soon as you open the packaging for the first time thanks to the pleasant scent of wood.

As the individual components are pre-cut with a precise laser, they only need to be slightly broken out of the panels and then inserted into each other. Thanks to illustrated step-by-step instructions, assembly is child's play.

Moreover, no separate tools or glue are needed for this, which means that the wooden puzzle can also be assembled by inexperienced beginners and younger car lovers.
