Volga Gaz 2101 (scale 1/43)

Volga Gaz 2101 is named after the great river in Russia. This was considered and extremely large and fuel consuming car in former Yugoslavia. This Russian giant was a big show off especially in Montenegro. It was not consider a cool and nice car, but rather sturdy and heavy "monster". This particular model is another example of beautiful car models made in Russia.

The details and opening doors, trunks, and even engine are crazy in such a small model.

Again, the comparison goes against Renault 4TL, Trabant 601, and Lada VAZ 2107 ("Riva"). All models are in 1/43 scale.
Check out the engine inside. The "big" wooden stick there is actually a piece of toothpick.
