Finally finished this one, has been on the bench for a while,annoying me,  but obviously not much else to do between shift blocks at the moment.

That looks really well done! Do the officers ride inside the cab?

How was the build? I have the same kit.

its a good kit but fragile,  caused a couple of problems for me.  As you can see the headlights aren't the kit supplied ones.  looking at the car straight on you can see where I got the roof crooked which caused problems fitting the driver in.  a bit of messing around to get the two on the roof sitting properly too

That quite the taxi you've got there Cam!

I especially like the waving flag. Really adds to the whole presentation which is outstanding.

Great job Camthalion  :smiley:  I'm guessing that, eventually, somebody will do resin figures of seated poilus for the backseats.

yeah, some figures for the inside would be really good for it.
