Williams F1 FW08 Team Ford 6 Wheels #6 1982 World Champion Keke Rosberg Press Version w/ Display Case in 1:18 scale
This is the Williams F1 FW08 Team Ford 6 Wheels #6 1982 World Champion Keke Rosberg Press Version w/ Display Case in 1:18 scale by GP Replicas.
The Williams FW08, famously driven by Keke Rosberg during the 1982 Formula 1 season, showcased remarkable innovation with its experimental six-wheel design, which was used for testing but never raced. Rosberg's performance that year was defined by consistency and strategic excellence, securing the championship with just one race win—a rarity in Formula 1 history. This was a tumultuous season marked by political conflicts, driver strikes, and a high number of different race winners, making Rosberg's title all the more impressive. The press version of the six-wheeled FW08 reflects the team's bold engineering ambitions during a period of rapid technological experimentation in Formula 1.
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.
