Brekina 14113, 14153

Type

Citroën 2 CV AZU van 1965

Comments

Tyres too wide. The rear door windows are too small.

Blue models: there are no gills under the bonnet! A second copy was offered by Train-modelisme.com when ordering on 3 December 2010.

Modèle “Banania” (made in China): the gills are present, but the model is sold at a golden price, being rather indifferent compared to other models sold cheaper (e.g. Land Rover).

History

The 2 CV AZU was produced from 1954 to 1977. The model reproduced by Brekina appeared in 1965 (grille, square rear windows, bonnet corrugations replaced with ribs…).
