1:18 Scale. Steven Ellery /Tony Longhurst Ford EF Falcon – 1996 Bathurst 1000 – #25.

Celebrate an underrated Bathurst success story with this 1:18 scale diecast replica of the Ford EF Falcon raced by Tony Longhurst and Steven Ellery to a hard-fought 3rd place finish at the 1996 AMP Bathurst 1000.

In 1996, Longhurst launched his own team—Castrol Longhurst Racing—to tackle the new Touring Car Championship season. Despite facing stiff competition from the Shell Falcons and Holden Commodores, the team battled from 7th on the grid to a podium finish at Mount Panorama. It was a highlight of the year and marked Longhurst’s first Bathurst podium since his 1988 victory in a Ford Sierra.

This premium model authentically replicates that standout Falcon in stunning detail, from the iconic Castrol-backed livery (cigarette branding omitted in accordance with regulations) to the intricately reproduced Ford V8 engine, fully detailed interior, race seat with harness, roll cage, and detailed fuel system in the boot.

Expertly engineered with opening doors, bonnet, and boot, poseable front wheels, and rubber tyres, this officially licensed collector’s piece also includes photo-etched Ford badges, premium packaging, and an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
