Probably the rarest CMC model. Great presentation!

That is a neat looking car and obviously a great model.  For sure it would get you noticed putting down the road, if not for the car, the bold colors would.  Thanks for the great photos.

@donderbeestje

the black & red is the one I wanted, but David Sinclair was sold out and this was all he had. I did not know at the time how rare it was or how great the colors would look.

@john,

The black and red is easy to get in Europe. I am still looking for the rare blue and cream/yellow version Sweaty

Bought a Horch last week....

 The mascot is missing but the rest of the car is great. I found out that loose parts of CMC cars can be bought if they are available so i am hoping they will find a mascot

I'm sorry that CMC decided to leave the 1/24 scale models. I have most of them and they are all gems.
