Not a big deal, but the P25 has an inline 4 cylinder engine and not a flat 4.

Pre Wing make resin kits of the BRM V16, P261 and the 3 litre H16 car but their website doesn't give much detail abut years etc.

George Turner also made a BRM P25 Mike Hawthorn British GP 1956 but it is discontinued now.

If you want a photo of the later MRRC apparition when they added wings on the nose and a rear wing - a marketing attempt to make it look more modern - I have a couple I can photograph.

Although not stated, I assume you mean commercially available models.

Otherwise, you missed the Steadman H16

Thanks very much for the extra info folks.

P25 Engine corrected.

Pre Wing cars added.

George Turner car added.

I haven't included the Steadman V16, nice as it is, the list is intended to be of cars that people might possibly be able to buy, even if they are obsolete.

I already have photos of the later MRRC P261 with the wings but it is too vile to include in the list!

I don’t know who made this one, but it looks like a 1/32 P57 with a vac-formed body and it seems to be self-powered and originally intended as a slot car. It’s on Fishermans Wharf in San Francisco.

Hello Brian, 

Here is another one for your list....
[attachment=27716][attachment=27717]



SCX Vintage  BRM P261  Graham Hill 1964.  Limited Edition. 

Actually a really nice model,  goes perfectly well on my routed layout. 
Only downside,  just the upper half of the driver figure, as with other classic Formula One cars, due to sitting directly above the motor.

I was lucky enough to see a number of BRM's at the Goodwood Revival again this year,  including the new/chassis #4 BRM V16.
The noise is just incredible!!

Interesting to see the SCX BRM P261 apparently sports the H16 engine……..

Blimey, good spot 42redcat, I'd never actually noticed that!
