Yep. Sadly the windows are yellowish. The previous owner sold me 8 cmc's for a low price. This Wanderer didn't have a box and was placed on a sunny spot in his room 😔

@donderbeestje I have a Western Models 1960 Eldorado Biarritz that had been a window display item for years at St. Martin's Models, London and it took all my powers of persuasion to get them to sell it me because the windscreen had yellowed.  But sometimes you just have to have the model!

interesting and informative post, thanks all. 

A case of me learning about a country's car manufacturing from the models. I had no idea the extent of Soviet Union activity until Hachette et al starting producing 1/24 models a few years back, there are heaps available now. Heres 3 I've added.

Moskvitch 400 420A

And of course I had to add a GAZ A, the Soviet "Model A"
