Renault 8

 

Bought at the Classic Car Show NEC November 2008, an unbranded model of the Renault 8 from the 1960s. This when Renaults were a bit different and the French still thought the right place to put the engine was at the back. You  used to see hordes of these on the road in France back in the seventies, it was the boy racer's weapon of choice, just like the Corsa in the UK today.

A beautifully detailed model.
