In my quest to replicate world wide automotive history I thought I needed a Nissan Leaf as one of the early full electric cars.  This came in a generic case with no brand label but is apparently a made in China diecast by Deagostini.

...looks just fine to me.  Are those graphics "factory"  or are you going to remove them?

Leafs were a big deal here for a while about 10 years ago. ORNL even setup a solar-powered charger area for them, with the resulting canopy keeping cars cool in the summer as a bonus. Then Teslas started showing up everywhere, including my collection.
