McLaren MP4-22 (2007)

Minichamps McLaren MP4-22 Alonso 1:18

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes: The Alonso 1:18 MP4/22 is now quite difficult to find. Scarity  has turned collectors to the showcar model and  the Hotwheels equivalent 1:18. Famous for Alonso-Hamilton intra-team battle and Ferrari Spygate during 2007.

Renault R29 (2009)

Minichamps Renault R29 Alonso 1:18

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes: 2nd year of Fernando’s 2nd stint with Renault. Best result in 2009 was 3rd place podium in Singapore GP. The Minichamps 1:18 R29 model is rare which leaves many  collectors to opt for the Norev 1:18 to fill this car in an Alonso car collection. Also the R28 was not produced in 1:18 scale by Minichamps.
