ABOUT THE MODEL RARE, difficult to find, very good model
1/43 scale is the most popular, one of the oldest, international scale used for die cast cars models.
ONYX Collectible Models by Minibri in Portugal (Made in Portugal) and was a part of Vitesse Group of companies. They debuted in 1/43 scale F1 Cars and later Indy Cars. Several years prior the bankruptcy of Vitesse Group Onyx manufactured 1/43 model of Sport Cars, Touring and Rally cars.
This particular model featured opening front doors. All models from the series featured detailed interior that is correct for sport or rally cars.
“Onyx models have always been of very good quality with accurate paint finish and detailing. They have rubber tires and plastic baseplate”. Model comes with its own display case packet in a cardboard.
Vitesse name along with most streetcars dies went to Sun Star (was actual manufacturer of most street cars, developer and owner of many dies) and the company that now we know as IXO. I believe that ONIX models were manufactured by a company the now runs IXO.
I have more models by Skid, Onyx, and Vitesse in stock, as well many other manufacturers
