I posted a while ago that i had ordered the Skoda MB1000. It was in the mail yesterday. So this thing is 1/87 scale, made in Germany, shipped from Greece and limited to 1104 worldwide.
The reason I bought it was sentimental though. My grandpa used to own and drive this car all the way throughout the 80's and looked after it really well. So a lot of my childhood memories are linked to this car, including a tacky gear stick crowned by a plastic flower under plexi sort of plastic. He swapped it for an Opel Omega after the Berlin wall came down and all the western cars entered the market.
He died in 2000 from diabetes related complications.
