Got a couple of Norev models as presents today, fairly good quality too at a reasonable price, the SM even has carpets, the C-Metisse has a button under the back that pops all the doors open too, they will look nice with the xm

almost as nice as having the real thing, but without the hassle

Hi Dean,
That SM model is just amazing, especially the details of the interior and engine compartment!! What is the scale out of interest?
With regards,

Hi Matthew
It is 1:18 so a good size, also just mucking around with it and there is a lever under the car to set the suspension height between minimum and normal and service heigh, i think thats pretty damn good.
I think, (think) it cost £45 so a fair chunk of money but still not bad for what you get!

Wow, the Sm Model is very cool. The detail is excellent. Lets hope the C Metisse gets made 1:1!

Thats CHEAP! Many an XM 1:18 Norev model goes for double that!
Amazing detail, better if it was a DS though..
