How do you find this model?

Anonymous (31.01.2019)
That´s a nice model, looking funny with it´s freaky jaw when the hood is opened or frog-like when it´s closed. It is of good quality but nothing to compare to Norev or an even better manufacturer. It is disappointing because of the doors which a) opens only at the front and b) with the outdated swing outside the body. The chromium-parts are a bit too shiny as Panhard-cars where always a bit dull. But it is the only "big" model of a very rare car that was the successor of the Panhard Dyna with a very stream lined body so it perfectly fits to Citroen, which was keen about aerodynamics itself. Conclusion: nice model, fair price, but do not expect any wonder - it is from Solido.
