1/72 Italian Light Military Vehicle 508 CM Coloniale

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

From the manufacturer:

The Coloniale was a lightweight, two-wheel drive vehicle designed by Fiat and used by German and Italian troops in WWII, almost exclusively in the desert environments of North Africa. The 508 line was originally developed in the private sector in the late 1930s and later developed as a platform on which several variants were produced for use in military service during the war. The 508’s power plant was an 1100cc in-line four-cylinder capable of producing up to 32hp. The “Coloniale” version of the 508 was adapted to avoid ingress of sand and sinking in soft terrain.
