Atlas Dinky Toys No. 1425E Matra 630 Le Mans

The Atlas Dinky Toys No. 1425E Matra 630 Le Mans is a beautiful scale model of one of the most legendary French racing cars. Developed by the French brand Matra, the Matra 630 is most famous for its participation in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, one of the toughest and most prestigious car races in the world. This model represents the emergence of Matra in the 1960s as a force to be reckoned with in international motorsport.

Designed in 1967, the Matra 630 was a sports prototype with an aerodynamic design and a powerful V8 engine. Matra used the 24 Hours of Le Mans as a testing ground for their technological innovations, and although the 630 did not win, it laid the foundation for Matra's successes in later years, including the 1972 Le Mans victory with the Matra 670. The sleek, low-slung design and bright blue colour of the Matra 630 have made it an iconic presence in the world of motorsport.
