Here's the Wrecker
Good models with lots of details represented, including the modern indicators and taillights!

Kuno, if you didn't like the price of the kit, how about the assembled model?

Default Price is not bad

For a full resin kit the price is about right.

Please don't get me the wrong way - I just wanted to say, that it is a lot of money. But not that it is too much money for all the work which is behind such model!

Come on guys.....look at the slope of the cab front, height of the cab roof to the top of the door.

Funny they not only included modern lighting as Tony mentioned, but also Dutch licence plates!

What do the specialists say about the quality of this resin-kit compared to the original trucks? Alex's statement above tells me that it is not too accurate - but... still the model looks very good to me.

Looking at the photos Alex is correct in thinking the windscreen and door windows are too tall thus making the roof too high for the scale. Apart from the modern lights and the high roof it does not look bad but again I state I can only go off the photos as once you had the kit in hand it may be a completely different story.
