Matchbox Jordan 196

It’s the Matchbox “Grand Prix Racing Car” in the colors of the Jordan 196-Peugeot  

 It’s clearly a recycled casting, as the toy car is of a mid-80s F1 car design (a turbo car, no air box), while the real one came out about a decade later.  But the “PEUGEOT”, the “Special F1” markings on the sidepods are both spot on.  On the real car is Rubens Barrichello at the 1996 British Grand Prix.
