Lanzante GTR

[LARK60]

Hi all.
Got a book this week called British Motorsport yearbook 96/97.It has a decent double page shot of the rare Lanzante livery car in blue and yellow.It is a moving picture so a bit blurred.It got me thinking that this is one of the only models that has not been made.
I sent a message to autobarn models, whom i have bought about 15 GTR's from,and they said they have wanted to make this car,but have no decent pictures of it.
They where in touch with Mr Lanzante himself ,but still waiting for photos.

Has anyone got any decent shots of the car.I have only seen a couple on the forum!
It was the last model GTR i bought in its Lloyds livery[flux&ulrich],but it raced in the different Lanzante as well.

Thanks all

This is all I have to offer. I don't recall the story on the shot with the speaker - but likely sponsorship related.

















It would be nice to have some additional shots of that, and also more photos of the car in the Lloyds' livery. It was even displayed at a British Motorshow in the Blue/White Lloyds scheme, so I am surprised there aren't a few more shots in circulation of that.

The Team Carl Blue/Silver livery on 21R has also never been done. Nor has the original 1997 GTR Presentation Livery on 19R with the pink and yellow flourescent squiggles that I can recall.

I'm not 100% keen on the Lanzante livery on #02R, a bit plain. I'd definitely buy the Llyods livery model however

Finally we got this Lazante's livery some new things on the table!
I have only one shot collected at this livery, and it's taken from this Location Of GTR's Thread.

So this livery were painted on #02R some point? Some one remember the year, when #02R was having this Lazante's blue/yellow livery?
And do I remember right; it was used on Promotion shows?

BRDC GT Championship 1996

Round 1 - Silverstone - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - DNF

Round 2 - Donington - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 1st

Round 3 - Brands Hatch - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 3rd

Round 4 - Donington - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 2nd

Round 5 - Thruxton -Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 4th

Round 6 - Snetterton - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 8th

Round 7 - Oulton Park - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 3rd

Round 8 - Silverstone - Ian Flux (GB) / Jake Ulrich (USA) - 2nd

02R amassed enough points to take the series championship.

I believe the Lloyds Blue/White livery was only used at the final event at Silverstone.

OK so my view about promotion use was wrong. I got some details after doing that post...
Anyway, is there racing number allways #3?

[Peloton25]

Yes - the race number did not change.

Hi Peloton,
Thanks for the pictures.They might help make the model one day.I sent some of the MVR gtr to Autobarn a few years back ,and that model got made.
I agree that it's not a very pretty livery,but it would be nice to have models of all the race livery's
I forgot about the two long tail cars not done yet! Collections are never complete.
I had to stop collecting every single livery,e.g Gulf livery varied at different races, as the cost was getting out of hand.Many of the Autobarn cars i bought have since been made by IXO for a lot less cost.

I saw greg had bought the minichamps black Davidoff gtr.I searched for it for years before i got online.Eventually found it at a fair and paid over £300 for it.Madness.Now it sells for a lot less!

THANKS ALL
Hope to see some Mclarens next year,hopefully 95 winner,lark,gtr red promo&caesar gtr!!
In my dreams

There is one for sale at the moment for £220 from Alex Reade Motorsport and I was thinking of getting that one as it is the only one I have seen pops up on eBay - I paid 1/3 of that for mine.

Very interesting post!
About that 2010 years GTR's, Minichamps has allready put some delay that 95 Le Mans winner 1/18 model. It should be out of March 2010 this information what I have. So atleast that one should be next year thing.
Those what you mentioned, EBAY offers some of those, but some of those prices are so mad, that.......
