Opel Manta B 1975

Comments

There is a problem with the headlights: all the photos show optics going down close to the bumper. This is not the case at all for the model. In addition, the belt line is too high. So, the model is not much lifelike. Such major errors are curious, but not rare at Herpa.

Modifications

Silver colour on mirror.
