Iconic Citroën Collection

The Citroën collection showcases the innovative spirit of this revolutionary French manufacturer across multiple decades. The iconic Citroën 2CV recreates the beloved economy car presented at the 1948 Motor Show, designed to cross a field full of eggs without breaking one, with the distinctive Charleston variant featuring special two-tone paint schemes. The Citroën 5CV Tréfle represents the 1920s three-seat Torpedo nicknamed cloverleaf for its unique passenger seating, while the elegant B14 Normande from 1926 features opening engine bonnet and detailed engine replica.

The revolutionary Citroën 15CV Traction Avant captures the 1934 front-wheel-drive sedan nicknamed La Reine de la Route for its remarkable speed and exceptional roadholding, while the adventurous Citroën Méhari represents the lightweight recreational vehicle produced from 1968 to 1987. These kits capture Citroën's commitment to innovation and distinctive French automotive design philosophy.

Renault Heritage and European Classics

The Renault collection spans the company's most significant models from post-war economy cars to performance icons. The Renault 4CV recreates the car for everyone presented at the first post-war Paris Motor Show in 1946, becoming the first French car to exceed one million units produced. The revolutionary Renault 4TL GTL introduced front-wheel drive and independent suspension, while the sporty R8 Gordini captures the 1964 performance variant in its distinctive Bleu France livery with double white racing stripes. The aggressive R5 Turbo recreates the monstrous mid-engine hot hatch from 1980, and the historic Renault Taxi Type AG from 1907 represents the twin-cylinder taxi that replaced horse-drawn vehicles in Paris.
