I am quite attracted to the godesse, the Citroen ID / DS. Stunning car to my mind.

During the Tulpenrallye 2012 Bert van den Dool and Wico Mulder drove the old "Maus Gadsonides" Citroen ID 19 from 1958. Makes a good excuse to build a model of this gorgious car.

Bit of a disappointment, the clear decals look a bit white. I'll have to make some new ones.

Nice! Love these Citroens, and it's always a treat to see one done in racing livery.

Here is the list of mods:
- Body in Ecaille Blonde
- Interior in several shades of brown and carpeted
- Rally equipment and clip board
- Wheels centre cap removed and the centre bit is grinded
- Rally & name stickers
- Rear indicators painted in right colour (chrome is for later models)

The result:
