Heller 1:24- Citroen Trefle

André Citroën wanted to produce a vehicle that was simply designed, low-priced and lightened, without compromising its sturdiness. After the type A, the B2 was launched, followed by a smaller model: the 5CV two-seat Torpedo, which was generally painted yellow, earning it the nickname of "little lemon".

The driver's seat was fixed in place while the passenger's seat slid on rails. The waterproof hood rested on ash wood hoops and its 850 cc engine powered the car to a top speed of 60 km/hr. From 1922 to 1926, 80,250 units were produced. Model Information Contains: 102 Pieces Age: 14+  Read Less
