Full description
Add a championship-winning Formula 1 icon to your collection with the MCG 1:18 Brabham BT52 #5 Parmalat Nelson Piquet 1983 Brazilian GP Diecast Model. This detailed replica represents the #5 Brabham BT52 as raced by Nelson Piquet to victory at the 1983 Brazilian Grand Prix.
The Brabham BT52 was one of the most distinctive Formula 1 cars of the turbo era, designed by Gordon Murray for the 1983 season. With its striking arrow-shaped bodywork, BMW turbocharged engine and Parmalat livery, the BT52 became a defining car of the year. Nelson Piquet used the BT52 to great effect, winning the 1983 Drivers’ World Championship and giving Brabham one of its most famous F1 successes.
The Brazilian Grand Prix was a perfect opening statement for Piquet’s 1983 campaign, as he won his home race at Jacarepaguá in Rio de Janeiro. This model captures that important race-winning version of the car, making it a meaningful piece for fans of classic Formula 1, Brabham and Nelson Piquet.
Made by MCG (Model Car Group) in 1:18 scale, this diecast model with plastic parts measures approximately 25 cm long and comes presented with a display base. It is a great choice for Formula 1 collectors, fans of 1980s turbo-era racing and anyone looking to add a landmark Brabham to their collection.

Understanding Scale
The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.
