Australian Limited Edition – Only 1,500 Units

One of the major attractions of the C4703F is its limited availability.

This model has been produced as an Australian limited release, with a total production run of only 1,500 units.

That limited production, combined with the enduring popularity of the Holden Torana and Bathurst motorsport history, makes this a particularly interesting release for dedicated Scalextric and Australian touring car collectors.

Holden A9X Torana – Bathurst 1979

Few Australian cars are as closely associated with the golden era of touring car racing as the Holden Torana A9X.

This Scalextric model celebrates the Janson & Perkins entry from Bathurst 1979, bringing a piece of classic Australian motorsport history to the slot car circuit.

The A9X's muscular proportions and distinctive touring car silhouette translate beautifully into 1:32 scale, giving the model plenty of character whether it is racing or sitting in a display collection.

High-Detail Cockpit

Extra attention has been given to the interior presentation.

Rather than relying on a shallow representation, the model features a full-length driver figure, positioned correctly on the right-hand side.

This detail adds another layer of realism when viewing the car through the windows and complements the carefully reproduced exterior.

Working Front & Rear Lights

Functional lighting brings the Torana to life on the circuit.

The model features:

• Working front lights
• Working rear tail lights
• Detailed front lighting components
• Detailed rear lighting treatment

The illumination is particularly effective during evening and low-light racing sessions, giving the classic Holden even more presence on the track.

Inline Motor & Magnatraction

The C4703F uses an inline motor configuration, with the motor arranged longitudinally within the chassis.

The model is also equipped with Scalextric Magnatraction, using a rectangular magnet to provide additional attraction between the car and compatible metal-railed Scalextric track.

This assists with grip and stability, helping make the Torana enjoyable to race while retaining its strong collector appeal.
