This is a premium AUTOart Millennium 1:18 scale diecast model of the legendary Porsche 917 LH (Long Tail), wearing the iconic Martini Racing Team #21 livery.

About the Real Car
The Porsche 917 LH (“Langheck” or Long Tail) was engineered specifically for maximum top speed on long straights, particularly for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Its extended bodywork dramatically reduced drag, allowing the 917 LH to exceed 240 mph (386 km/h) down the Mulsanne Straight, an extraordinary achievement for its era.
The Martini Racing Team #21 version is one of the most recognizable race cars in endurance history, featuring the signature blue, red, and silver color scheme. With its advanced aerodynamics, lightweight frame, and flat-12 engine, the 917 series helped solidify Porsche as a dominant force in Le Mans racing.
