''Senna Taxi'' Mansell giving Senna a lift

[TopGearNL]

Short clip of this great moment in Formula 1, Senna breaks down in the last lap of the Grandprix of Silverstone on 14 april 1991 its these moments that make it for me. Love the way Senna taps on Mansells helmet saying ''Ready to go!'' Rivals and friends at the same time. Don't see this often nowadays sadly :(

Been thinking about buying the 1:18 Scale model of this great moment, I can buy it with or without Mansells autograph, what do you guys think? :D

Very nice. I also doubt that you would see that today.

Didn't know about the scale model but I'd go for the autographed version if the price was right..

Normal model is 89,95 Euros. Autographed one is 200 Euros

great stuff :cry: I wish I could see the whole thing and with voice 8)

As for the model - I'd buy the normal without the signature... you'll have the occasion to get it signed by Mansell at Goodwood or any other similar event in the future, and I can tell you the feeling is very different: I prefer x100 times my De La Rosa signed Jaguar F1 or Trulli signed cap, than the C-Klasse DTM signed by Bernd Schneider I bought in eBay

True! :D

Thanks Dani for helping me make up my mind!

Al I need to do now is find out which drivers are at which event...

Except that "Senna Taxi" model is really badly done.

Either the car or the drivers are totally out of scale.

Compare the real thing to the model, it gives the impresison the car is a large SUV or the Senna figure is a dwarf... ;)

Better off making your own 110% accurate model :)

Really? :shock:

How did you know that?

[TopGearNL]

Its the standard Minichamps Nigel Mansell model I believe, just with an added Senna figure :?

Exoto is more detailed, but they don't do this model sadly :(
