When handling, be gentle as it's a fragile brass model. Keep it away from dust and moisture to maintain its appearance. Regularly check the wheels for any signs of wear. If you notice any excessive noise or issues with running, it might be a good idea to have it checked. When storing, use the original box and foam to protect it. If you want to clean it, use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using any harsh chemicals as they can damage the paint and details.
