1/43 Opel Insignia hatchback sedan by Schuco

The Opel Insignia was first introduced to the public at the British international motor show in 2008.Being the succeed model of Opel Vectra, the Insignia was voted 2009 European car of the year.It is a sport and luxury hatch-back sedan. In North America and China, the Insignia replaces the Buick LaCrosse as the fifth generation Buick Regal.

Schuco has made the 1/43 model of the Insignia. The hatchback version comes with white and lightgold metallic while the saloon version comes with dark blue and grey metallic. Each color has a 1500 limited run. Just like any other Schuco product, this model features great shaping and paint work and detailed head lights and rear lights. The Insignia's front and rear wind shield wipers are photo etched parts and door handles are individual parts.The interior is not bad but a little dull in color. The hatchback 's rim and spoke is sexy. However I like the wheels in the OPC version better.

Here are some photos I took of my white hatchback one. Click on the pictures to view the full size photos.
