How do you find this model?

Anonymous (07.01.2019)
Great model of the late DS. Its a bit of a shame that only the front doors can be opened and the trunk not. The hood opens not wide enough (which is better now with the DS/ID Break from Norev). Has hydropneumatics-simulation in 3 positions (dead low, normal driving, high position). The first model (bordeaux-red with black interior and german license-plates) is not recommended because it is too dark overall and you barely can see any details in the passenger compartment.
