Type
Citroën 11 Traction Avant 1939
Comments
Universal Hobbies original metal model. Apart from the headlights’ size, too small, this model is rather successful, like its predecessor Atlas-UH. But it’s the same mould, so the same car (bonnet air vents). It would have been more interesting to have a model of the 50s.
The dimensions of the model are closer to the 7A traction than the 11.
Weight (to be taken into account if car loading): 12 g.
