Affiliate Disclosure & Disclaimer

Last updated: December 30, 2025

1. Amazon Associates Program

Model Car Icons participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon and its regional marketplaces (including, but not limited to, Amazon.de, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.es, and Amazon.com).

As an Amazon Associate, commissions may be earned from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to the reader.

1.1 International Visitors & Automatic Redirects

Some affiliate links may initially point to a specific Amazon marketplace (for example, Amazon.de). Amazon’s localisation systems may automatically redirect visitors to the most relevant regional store based on location, displaying local pricing, availability, and shipping options.

Readers who prefer a specific Amazon marketplace may manually adjust the domain (e.g. replacing .com or .co.ukwith .de).

2. Other Affiliate Programmes & Partnerships

In addition to Amazon, Model Car Icons participates in other affiliate programmes and partnerships through established affiliate networks and direct brand relationships, including but not limited to:

  • AWIN

  • GoAffPro

  • AvantLink

  • Direct retailer programmes (such as specialist model and diecast retailers, including aviation and hobby suppliers)

These programmes may include partnerships with retailers and platforms such as CK-Modelcars, Airmodels, Wayland Games, and other recognised specialist stores.

When a reader clicks an affiliate link and completes a purchase, Model Car Icons may earn a commission at no extra cost to the buyer.

3. How Affiliate Revenue Supports the Project

Affiliate commissions help support the continued operation and development of Model Car Icons, including:

  • Hosting and technical maintenance

  • Research and editorial preparation

  • Long-form historical and technical writing

  • Site design, structure, and usability improvements

This model allows Model Car Icons to remain an independent, editorial-first project, free from sponsored content obligations or paid endorsements.

  Ferrari 250 GTO—The Crown Jewel of Classic Automotive Artistry Few automobiles are as revered as the   Ferrari 250 GTO : a rare Italian masterpiece blending racing might and design purity.

Ferrari 250 GTO – Where Passion Meets Precision in Die-Cast Collecting

Image
  Ferrari 250 GTO – Where Passion Meets Precision in Die-Cast Collecting Few cars in history embody the perfect marriage of performance, rarity, and beauty quite like the Ferrari 250 GTO. Built between 1962 and 1964, only 36 examples ever left Maranello’s gates, making it one of the most coveted collector cars of all time. Today, it is not just a symbol of Ferrari’s golden era—it is an icon that defines what it means to own a piece of automotive history. From Track Legend to Collectible Icon Designed to dominate the FIA’s GT racing series, the 250 GTO combined a 3.0-litre V12 engine with an aerodynamically sculpted body. Each car was hand-built, with subtle differences that made no two examples exactly alike. It was as much a work of art as it was a race-winning machine. Its motorsport pedigree includes victories at the Tour de France Automobile and class wins at Le Mans, cementing its reputation as both a technical masterpiece and a competition weapon.
