    I’m looking forward to getting one of these. The elderly Revell 1302 is the nearest to one of these models available so far. And they are now starting to sell for way too much on the ‘net. The Beetle is a car which always seems to divide opinion, and I was not a fan until I owned one. Then my opinion changed 180 degrees. Can’t wait!

    The “dog leg” on the doors at the new model looks terrible.

      Not the most appealing, but considering the price point this is most acceptable. If you want better look into Schuco!

      Considering how much Solido charge for these models, it’s hardly a surprise. Opening features on ‘toys’ sold by European manufacturers need to conform to some very strict regulations, and this will have been a significant factor in how the door works. Dealers in multiples will not be happy if a model is returned after one day having been broken by careless handling…..
