This die-cast \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e model from IXO Models captures car No. 3 in the works white livery with black Peugeot and Talbot Sport branding — exactly as it finished first overall at Le Mans in June 1993, completing 375 laps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"peugeot-905-evo-1b-the-machine\"\u003eThe Peugeot 905 Evo 1B: Lightened, Revised, Definitive\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Evo 1B was the third and final evolution of the 905 platform, introduced for the 1993 season. Compared to the Evo 1A, it featured a lightened carbon-fibre monocoque alongside revised front and rear bodywork that refined the car's aerodynamic balance. Power came from the Peugeot A3R, a 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V10, mounted longitudinally in a mid-rear position. It was the most developed form of a prototype that had already won Le Mans the previous year, making it the definitive Peugeot endurance racer of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"le-mans-1993-the-race\"\u003eLe Mans 1993: Pole, Fastest Lap and a 1-2-3 Podium\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeugeot Talbot Sport entered three 905 Evo 1Bs in 1993 and locked out the entire podium — cars No. 3, No. 2 and No. 1 finishing in that order. Car No. 3, crewed by Geoff Brabham, Christophe Bouchut and Éric Hélary, took the outright win after 375 laps. Hélary also recorded the fastest lap of the race, and the team had taken pole position, completing a total domination of the weekend. Brabham, son of Formula 1 champion Jack Brabham, was the sole non-French member of the winning crew — a detail that adds a distinct cross-discipline dimension to the car's history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"ixo-models-143-le-mans-collection\"\u003eIXO Models and the Le Mans Collection in \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model is produced by IXO Models as part of their dedicated Le Mans Collection, a series focused on historically significant race winners at Circuit de la Sarthe.

IXO's Le Mans Collection titles are aimed at collectors who prioritise documented race history and accurate livery representation over play features, and this reference — covering one of the most complete winning performances in the race's modern era — sits squarely in that tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IXO MODELS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60319575769472,"sku":"LM1993","price":32.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-lm1993-front34-v2.jpg?v=1793901223","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/products\/peugeot-905-evo1b-3-5l-v10-team-peugeot-talbot-sport-n-3-winner-24h-le-mans-1993-geoff-brabham-christophe-bouchut-eric-helary-white-black","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
