Anyone else get a Minichamps Mercedes G4 6-wheeler?
There is a very small triangular part that was rattling around in the box for mine. I think it goes on one of the chassis rails, maybe a steering box? Anyone see this on theirs?

Sorry Harvey, I didn't buy one as I already had the Altaya version.

Harvey, I'll take mine out of its plastic box tomorow and see if I can figure out ..................
what your small part should be and where it belongs.

Harvey, I had no luck at all finding a small triangular part.
It is so black and shiny on the underneath that it is difficult to make out what IS there, much less what might be missing. Sorry. Hope someone else can help you on this one.

Is it possible to have an image from the part?
Can you try take a photo from it using a macro lens?

It's only a millimeter or two wide, and black
Perhaps instead someone could photo the chassis on theirs? There is a hole on one of the frame rails so I'm wondering if the part belongs there.
