PROS

  • Details at a high level
  • Robust model construction
  • Accuracy in painting

CONS

  • In the era of mediocrity, Hahcette has clearly followed the trend of overusing the copy-paste sequence. They didn't even bother to change the colour of the paintwork and they just added a mirror on the passenger's side. Two years after the model was released on the French market, they released a clone of the model on the Polish market.
