The philosophy is outstanding. Take a hot hatch, make it mid-engined, rear wheel drive. Put just enough power and use a V6. Renault just could achieve the amazing, but… Extremely short wheelbase and quite tail heavy made things worse enough. The car looks outstanding in person. It even sounds awesome, left stock. This kind of a car also has to perform very well, which in this case, couldn’t. Would I buy one? It might have been my 17th car. A nice model car builder, Universal Hobbies. I respect them. Interior needs some more detail since this is some special car. Mould is fine. Scale looks fine. The color, it is not a special one, looks fine also. Date purchased : 2012 Price paid : 50 USD
There are some hot hatches that sound great. This is one of them. As a special edition, the car gives you unique wheels, hood scoop and chassis number plate on the dashboard. I have a friend who owns one which is almost like new. I am not a resin model kinda guy so I went for this Norev one. Except from the wheel colour, the car is very good. Some of you who has read my other posts will notice that I almost say “very good”, “quite good” and so, to every model. Remember, I do the reviews on a “value / price” basis and, I also add my feelings, other models of the manufacturer, rarity and if there are other options on the market.
