Citroën CX break 1976

Comments

Well respected look. The scale is almost perfect, except for the rear track which is too small. This is due, as with most Citroën cars, to the fact that there is no wheel arch at the rear. The tyres are slightly too wide.

The model doesn’t seem to be painted: the plastic is metallic in the mass, and not very bright.

The headlights and the mirrors are attached. The rear lights are painted. The wipers, moulded with the windscreen, are painted black.

The leather-coloured interior is a success. It is organized as a wagon, with three rows of seats. The detailed steering wheel is not detached from the dashboard.
