Hi folks,

for those who might wonder what the Citroen Horst S Edition Duisburg is:

Horst Schimanski was an investigator on the German crime show „Tatort“ (which translates to,“crime scene“). He was protrayed by the rather well-known German actor Götz George (son of Heinrich George, who. was also an actor) in a rather… unusual? …drastic? way in that he cursed, there was nudity involved (as well as car chases), and Mr George was (he passed away recently) imho a really, really good actor who got this investigator nailed perfectly, even creating a fashion fad, the Schimanski coat, back in the day.

Schimanski was based in Duisburd, a Ruhrgebiet city, and the decay and falling apart of what was a former industrial city played a major part in the Schimanski scripts. 

Oh yes, and Horst Schimanski didn‘t drive a fancy BMW or Mercedes like most other investigators on German TV did back in the day, but a Citroen, which did add to his blue collar credibility.

Only available in German, sorry.

The CX GTI looks very close to the old Neo casting...

CXGTIT2Neo01

By the way, very happy that Matrix announced a new recolor of their Daimler Double Six Vanden Las Series 1...
