This is the Ferrari 166 MM Abarth Gloss Red Press Version 1953 in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
The 1953 Ferrari 166 MM Abarth in Gloss Red—often referred to as the Press Version—is a rare and exquisite fusion of Italian performance and custom-bodied elegance. What sets this car apart is its unique collaboration between Ferrari and Carlo Abarth, resulting in a lightweight, aerodynamically refined body that diverged from traditional Ferrari styling. Powered by a Colombo-designed 2.0-liter V12 engine, the 166 MM delivered spirited performance in a compact, race-bred package. This particular version stood out for its role in showcasing Ferrari’s engineering prowess to the world, wrapped in a design that was both aggressive and artful. Its rarity, bespoke craftsmanship, and early place in Ferrari’s storied lineage make it a true gem in automotive history.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication
