The British company R.P.M. Models has released back in 1998 a rather well detailed 1:43 Volvo 855 T5 resin kit.The model was available as normal road car but also in several Police versions for the UK. I have already presented the road version here. The following photos will show you the 'Sussex Police' version. A lot of fine cast metal, white metal, photo-etched parts and details are included within this resin kit. There is no noticeable flash on the resin body and the various detail parts. Excellent clear and crisp decals are supplied for this right-hand drive Police car model. The instructions are rather basic, but then then it's not the most complex kit and it should all make sense. But a few photos of the real car will be very helpful to apply the details and decals to the correct places. Unfortunately I can't show you a finished model. I have never seen one so far.

The British company R.P.M. Models has released a few years ago a rather well detailed 1:43 Volvo 855 T5 resin kit. The model was available as normal road car but also in several Police versions for the UK. The kit has a lot of fine cast metal, white metal, photo-etched parts and details. Decals are supplied for the the right-hand drive dashboard and some exterior trim ( rear windows, front spoiler, ... ). My normal kit comes even with some parts which are intended to build the Police versions. But the decals for the Police versions are not included. The price tag of the kit was 45 €. I have tried a few times to contact the company but never got a reply.       |
