Heller makes a 1/8 Citroen Traction Avant 15 SIX.

It has a straight 6 engine and you can built a 1949, 1951 or 1952 version of it. It has 1054 parts and I have one WIP.

That DS 21 is a monthly build. You collect parts every month and then you build it. It's a metal model.

Aha. Like the 1/8 James Bond Aston Martin from Goldfinger.

Sorry all, i was away in vacations!

so i'll try to answer: Heller made two kits of Traction in 1/8 scale, something quite crazy, and a DS 19 "cabriolet" in 1/16 scale (very hard to built). others was in 1/24.

this kit will need around one year to be complet (4 sets per month) and will cost 1100 € (without bonus, 3 diecast miniatures)

it's the Altaya edition kit, but it's Spanish Agostini manufacturer.

about the repaint color, see this picture:

light reflects make it lighter

I received interior parts ( a seat and dashboard)

pictures soon!

Heller made only one kit of Traction Avant in 1/8 scale. It can be found in four different boxes, but the parts are all the same ones. DS 19 1/16 is not a Cabriolet, it has four doors and so it's a sedan.
