Volvo P210 Duett 'Tele' by Editions Atlas

11/25/2014

16 Comments

 
The number fifty in the Volvo Collection by Editions Atlas is a Volvo P210 Duett in the colors of the Swedish telecommunication company Televerket. This Volvo has also been used by Volvo for promoting their Duett models (see photos at the end). The scale model wears the usual orange paint scheme (RAL 2009) and comes with a wooden ladder and a telescopic pole on the roof rack. This diecast model is made by Ixo in China.

I'm sure that many will say : oooh no not another Duett. This is of course a very legitimate opinion. The Volvo P210 Duett has however a different shape and a different angle of the windshield compared to the PV445 Duett's. This means that both Duett's were in fact two different cars. Please compare this scale model to the photos of the original car (see photos at the end) and let me know what you think.
Update:
Please have a look at this 3D view of the P210 Duett model to see the various parts the model is made of.

Yes, where? Found one photo of the actual car (reg.No. W4526) on the net, and that window is easy to see (through the windscreen). Since most Duetts didn't have that window I wish EditionsAtlas had not put the reg.No. on it. P210 had been fine.
Especially since the model is different from the W4526 car in a couple of other aspects also.
But I like the choice of a car with solid side panels, and a TELE car is a good choice for a Swede...

Thanks for your comments, in this case I also don't understand... We had the small windows on the digital sample and Volvo ask us to remove it...

Since them, I have a better contact with Volvo and we can manage such veto better, because they discuss with us and not only with the producer.

I'm really sorry for that and understand your arguments. The Volvo licence become very hard to deal with since last summer.

Hello Mr Atlas

I hope You can pursue Volvo to make OK for the one with the little window, since that model is so neat and significant for the TELE Duetts, even though they made TELE Duetts without. After all, this is why we collect Your cars, You tend to put some effort into the details :-)

Mr Atlas! I really appreciate your problems with Volvo. Well, good that I don't have a 1:1 Volvo, only 1:43s...
Too bad (and strange) that they removed something that is shown on so many of their own promotion pictures.
Lars hopes for another Duett, but I don't really agree. Maybe if the number of models is increased, because within the ten items to go I have too many wishes!
And I feel that this orange TELE-car still is very fine. Except the number plate.

Strange thing that Volvo would have a problem with that window. Apart from that - another nice-looking model. And since it just came up: I'd like to see the number of cars in this collection increased again.

André Models have made the Volvo Duett TELE with the extra small window on the right hand side. Very nice too but very expensive.
On the Premium X Volvo 145 Express "Zienkenwagen" - ambulance from Holland - they have put the Swedish licence plate OA 85608 ...

The bonnet is a separate part on this model. Is it made to be opened forwards? Can you see the engine if you open it? If not why is it made separate?

Per S , I have the car here in front of me, so I can say that it's not made separate it's only the look of it. The car is better in in real life than on the pictures :)

Friendly Regars

Hello Martin, I have also got it and I can tell it is a separate part. However I don´t think it is meant to be opened.

I can confirm that the bonnet is a separate piece, it' only for the injection process, that's a technical reason, as you can see on this 3D (the first one before somme correction as you will see ;-) ), there is no possibility to put the engine under the bonnet.

This model is very nice to the Collection, but why can we not get a more realistic model very easy .
It is the colour on the felgen, from 1965 Volvo has a felg whith hole for the colding they are always in silver for every car whith different colour.
On every Picture I have seen on tele-duett whith this hole in the felgen they are silver but not on the earlier tele-duett.
Our tele-duett has the felgen whith the colding- hole so they shall be in silver.
I want Ixo or atlas check even small things for a right model which not cost more.
Best Regards from Ulf in Sweden

Volvo 445 Duett did not get the same modifications as PV 544 at the same time. The divided windscreen was kept two tears longer and so on then called P 210 Duett. The rim on the wheels was still in the same colour as the body. The hub-cap still had Volvo on it. Some years the Duett had the same red circled V as the PV 544 but for 1965 they all got the smaller black circle and silver rim.
I think that when Volvo did not want to make the TELE Duett as on the first drawing the model got a mix of the later years wheels, decals and so on but painted as an earlier model.
