 DESCRIPTION

Norev miniature cars are little know in the U.S. and seldom collected. In Europe, Norev's 1:43 scale line is actively collected and overshadows the smaller 1:64 scale offerings. As can be clearly seen in the Ford Mustang above, the Norev 'Mini-Jet' vehicles are well-executed replicas of the cars of the 1970s and 1980s. This Mustang is particulary good in giving a feel for the real car. As usual at this scale, the wheels are not realistic. If you want to collect Norev miniatures, a European connection is essential.
