Equipped with a 286 BHP and 4 litre six-cylinder engine, the Aston Martin DB6 was one of the dream sports cars par excellence from 1965 onwards. In order to be able to offer a practical convertible version of this sports car that was suitable for country and hunting trips for its demanding customers, many of whom were English, coach builders such as Harold Radford created so-called “Shooting Brakes” on the basis of the DB6. During the breaks in hunting, you could have lunch or a picnic right next to the practical sports convertible. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Aston Martin DB6 „Shooting Brake“ to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line.

Because Russian President Vladimir Putin wasn’t very enthusiastic about either the technology or design of his former ZIL statesaloon, Mercedes-Benz vehicles were used in his fleet for years. In order to be able to go back to a Russian make again in the future, the Moscow-based engine development institute NAMI designed a new representative saloon, the Aurus Senat, on behalf of the government and using state subsidies. With the support of Porsche Engineering, a state-of-the-art V8 hybrid drive system was created, from which a 2-litre, four-cylinder hybrid was derived, which will be used by Lada in the future. Presented to the public for the first time atVladimir Putin’s inauguration in May 2018, the Aurus Senat is available in a S600 version with a length of 5.63 metres and a wheelbase of 3.30 metres, as well as in the 700S stretch version with a length of 6.63 metres and a wheelbase of 4.30 metres.
In the early 1970s Erich Bitter combined tried and tested Opel technology with an extravagant and exotic chassis design. The resultwas the Bitter CD, a sports automobile which was produced from autumn 1973 to the end of 1979 and combined American and Germantechnology with Italian chassis design. Designed in close collaboration with the Stuttgart chassis manufacturer Baur, the Bitter CDwas presented to an enthusiastic audience at the IAA 1973 in Frankfurt. The mechanical parts were based on the Opel Diplomat B andincluded a 5.4 litre 8-cylinder engine with 230 hp. By the end of production in 1979, a total of 395 of this elegant sports coupé hadbeen sold for a base price of DM 60,000. The Bitter CD can reach speeds of up to 210 kilometres per hour, and more than half are still on the road today, mostly owned by collectors.
In 1966, on the occasion of its 50-year jubilee, BMW presented the compact, middle-class, 02 series saloon. The „2“ in the model designation stood for two-door and was supposed to make it easier for the customer to differentiate it from the somewhat larger „New Class“ saloon. In its time, the „02“ completed the bottom end of the BMW range and until its production was stopped in 1977, was the biggest-selling BMW of the 70s. Designed for BMW by the well-known bodywork company Baur in Stuttgart, from 1968 Baur also produced a full-size, 4-seat saloon and a Targa equipped with a roll bar for fresh air fans of the brand.

To meet the ever increasing demand for mobility during the famous German economic miracle of the 1950s, BMW presented the two-seater„MotoCoupé“ BMW Isetta in 1955. Also known as the „bubble car“ due to its round shape, this hugely popular microcar from Munich waspowered by a 12-horsepower motorcycle engine. Due to its 250cc engine, the Isetta could also be driven on a motorcycle licence.Costing roughly 2,580 German marks, the Isetta helped draw many former motorcyclists into the world of cars. At total of 161,360Isettas were manufactured between 1955 and 1962. Until the end of the 1960’s, a few examples of the Isetta were also used by variouspolice departments and are now among the most sought-after collector’s items on the Isetta scene.
Fitted with a 250 cm³ motorcycle engine, the BMW Isetta achieved a top speed of 85 km/h and more than 160,000 of them were produced in the period 1955 to 1962.

It is distinctly one of those BMW concept cars that unfortunately never found its way onto the public roads - the BMW M8 based upon the E31 series. Undoubtedly, the 550 PS V12 engine under the bonnet would have made this dream car one of the fastest and most powerful road vehicles of its time. Various design features distinguish this M8 from the standard BMW 8 series, including especially aerodynamic exterior mirrors and widely-flared wheel arches with air scoops in front of the driven rear wheels. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary BMW M8 Coupé to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line.

Like the VW Beetle, the Citroën 2 CV was also developed back in the 1930s. More than 5 million units of the French „people‘s car“ were manufactured during its production period of 1948 to 1990. While an early „duck“ with its 9 PS could still achieve a top speed of around 60 km/h, later 2CVs with 29 PS were capable of as much as 115 km/h.

First shown at the Geneva Motor Show in 1970, the Citroën SM was produced from 1970 to 1975 and is now regarded as one of the absolute style icons of automotive history. With a favourable drag coefficient of 0.33 - almost unbelievable for those times - the vehicle offered proof that aerodynamically favourable vehicle design need not necessarily result in uniform design ideas. The SM was fitted with a V6 engine developed by Maserati but did not prove to be a financial success for Citroen and production was swiftly ended after the takeover by the PSA-Group. Several very interesting special models based on the Citroën SM have also been produced over the years, such as the Cabriolet Mylord from Chapron, the Presidentielle presentation vehicle and a shooting-brake version. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Citroën SM Shooting Brake to a scale of 1:18 in the PRO R line.

The Cooper T51 was produced by the Cooper Car Company, which was founded by John Cooper in Surbiton, Surrey. The launch of this newvehicle heralded the beginning of the end for single-seater front-engined racing cars. Unlike previous Formula racing vehicles used by large factory teams such as Maserati, Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz and Vanwall, which were exclusively front-engined vehicles, the T51 wasthe first vehicle to feature a mid-engine directly behind the driver. In 1959, in addition to the Australian driver Jack Brabhambecoming the Formula 1 world champion, the Cooper factory team also won the Constructors Championship for its outstanding performance. Third place was won by Stirling Moss, who also drove a Cooper Climax T51. The world champion Jack Brabham also won the British GrandPrix in Aintree, where he drove a Cooper T51 with start number 12. Driven by a 2.5-litre Climax 4-cylinder engine, the T51 was alsoused at the beginning of 1960 Formula 1 season. Although it was replaced by the T52 over the course of the season, the T51 stillcontributed to Jack Brabham’s second consecutive victory and Cooper’s successful defence of the Constructors Championship.

Founded in 1883 in Pilsting as an agricultural machinery factory, Hans Glas GmbH of Dingolfing entered the lucrative two-wheel business at the start of the 1950s with the production of its Goggo scooter. A small car known as the Goggomobil was then launched in 1955 with great success, offering space for two adults and two children and costing 3,000 DM. In the years that followed, Glas evolved more and more into a serious manufacturer of cars. This led to the launch of the Glas 2600 V8 at the Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) in 1965. A very elegant coupé with coachwork designed by Frua and a V8 engine developed by the Glas company itself. This beautiful sports coupé, also nicknamed the „Glaserati“, unfortunately did not prove to be a commercial success and consequently Glas was sold to BMW AG in 1966. There, production of the coupé continued for a while as the BMW Glas 3000 V8 after some minor revisions were made to the design and features.

In 1953, Mercedes-Benz unveiled the Mercedes 180, from the W120 series, as its first completely new passenger car redesign since thewar. Also known as the “Ponton Mercedes” (the “Ponton Mercedes”), the 180 was a car for the upper middle class and replaced thepre-war 170V design. The “Ponton” was also the first Mercedes with a self-supporting chassis. The 180 D, introduced in 1954, becamepopular all over the world as a reliable taxi and was responsible for making the use of diesel engines in passenger cars popular.
As a successor to the famous Ponton Mercedes, the W120, Mercedes-Benz introduced in 1961 the W110 series, also known as the “littletail fin”. With the so-called “tail fin” design feature, the Mercedes-Benz design department, previously known for its conservatism,made a concession to the American automobile design prevailing at the time. Mercedes, however, called them “Peilstege”, as theyclearly marked the end of the vehicle when reverse parking.
The new Mercedes-Benz SL series debuted at the Geneva motor show in March 1963, and the 230 SL is now referred to as the „Pagode“model due to its distinctive hardtop roof. Its successor, the famous 190 SL, was the first SL series that consciously incorporatednumerous safety features. It was the first time that an SL model had offered a reinforced passenger cell, crumple zones, radial tyres, disc brakes and also optionally available seat belts. Often hailed as a design icon today, roughly 50,000 models of the„Mercedes-Benz Pagode“ were manufactured during various stages of development between 1963 and 1971, now making it a trulysought-after classic car that fetches high prices.
Presented in1957 as successor to the legendary 300 SL Gullwing, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster was produced from 1957 to 1963 witha total run of 1858 cars.

Mercedes-Benz offered a range of accessories for its well-heeled customers, including a matching suitcase set, a container forgolf equipment and a ski rack.
From 1928, the Fendt company was still busy producing laboriously hand-built grass mowers. Nevertheless, in 1930 they presented the first Fendt tractor, the Fendt Dieselross F9. The name Dieselross related to the workhorses still widely used at the time in farming but bit-by-bit being displaced by diesel-powered tractors. The Fendt Dieselross F20G on which our Schuco model to a scale of 1:18 is based was Fendt‘s mid-range model from 1951. Over 6,300 were built up to 1957 and had an upright, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with a displacement of 1.5 litres, delivering 20 hp through an 8-speed gearbox to the rear axle. This permitted speeds from 0.8 to 20 km/h (0.5 - 12.5 mph). Since 1997, the former family business in Marktoberndorf has belonged to the American agricultural equipment concern, AGCO Corporation and, since 2009 has traded under the name of AGCO GmbH.
The Mercedes-Benz /8 was first presented to customers in 1968, where the /8 stands for the presentation year.

A Micro Racer is equipped with a particularly fast-acting, long-throw suspension, the so-called micro-screw with which the steering can be adjusted with millimetric precision for targeted travel and a control lever by means of which the suspension can be locked and the free-wheel started. The new edition of the VW Beetle Micro Racers, which is still produced using the original Schuco tools, lacks nothing in quality and function compared to the original. With the Micro Racer VW Beetle as a building kit, you can learn about and get to understand the complex Micro Racer mechanics as you assemble the model. The building kit is supplied in an attractive, nostalgic gift package. A reprint of the original packaging from the 50s is also included in the set. All Micro-Racers are reproduced to an approximate scale of 1:40.

As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail. These models are the perfect choice for model railways enthusiasts, diorama makers and die-hard model collectors.
When the first 12 models in the Schuco-Piccolo series were launched in 1957 nobody had any idea at that stage that these models would still enjoy immense popularity sixty years later. This is no doubt attributed to the simple, robust and thus charming design of the models, which originally owed their appearance to the new die-cast technology of the time. Schuco Piccolos still make a good impression today on account of their excellent running qualities and their heavy zinc die-casting design like the Mini "Mr. B".
Built between 1965 and 1967, the Opel Diplomat Coupé was Opel’s crowning achievement of the mid-1960s. With a length of almost 5metres and a 230 hp 5.4 litre V8 engine, it could easily give the top-of-the-range Mercedes-Benz models a run for their money. At itslaunch in 1965 it cost DM 25,500, placing it in the same price category as luxury vehicles like the Mercedes-Benz 280 Pagoden-SL orthe Porsche 911. Unfortunately, the sales figures did not meet expectations and only 347 of these splendid vehicles were produced atthe Karmann facility in Osnabrück before production was discontinued in July 1967. Today, the Opel Diplomat A Coupé is highly soughtafter among collectors – vehicles in good condition fetch a price tag of more than 200,000 euros.
Throughout the production period, between 1948 and 1965, more than 76,000 of the first production Porsche sports car, the Porsche 356, were manufactured. With the 356, Porsche established its reputation as a producer of high-quality, elegant and highly efficient sports cars. The Porsche 356 is now one of the sought-after, sports car classics and, whether as a model or the original, is an inspiration with its timeless, attractive design. Schuco presents the die-cast Porsche 356 A Cabriolet in 1:43 scale. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.

After the first Porsche sports car, the so-called Porsche No. 1, was individually licensed for road traffic as early as the 8th of June 1948, in March 1949, Porsche presented its first production sports car at the Geneva Salon de l‘Auto, the legendary Porsche 356. Using classical tuning techniques, such as modified cylinder heads and twin carburettors, on the 4-cylinder boxer engine taken over from the VW Beetle, the engine power of the first Porsche 356 could be increased to a respectable 40 hp. Between 1949 and 1950, a total of 44 coupé and 8 convertible versions of the so-called „Gmünd Porsche 356“ were entirely hand-built. In 1950, Porsche moved back to its main factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen in which, by the end of production of the type 365 in April 1965, slightly over 76,000 of this sports car icon were produced. Schuco is going to produce in a limited edition of 500 pieces a miniature model of this legendary Porsche 356 Gmünd Cabriolet to a scale of 1:43 in the PRO R line. This line, consisting of resin as the material, stands for exceptional and highly filigree small series models. By means of this highgrade model material, it is possible to produce very rare and exotic exemplary vehicles in perfect quality and also in low and exclusive production runs.

“In the beginning, I looked around but couldn’t see the car I’d been dreaming of. So I decided to build it myself.” With this famousremark by Ferry Porsche, one of the most impressive success stories in automotive history began. Starting with the Porsche No.1 from1948 up to its highest stage of development, the Porsche 356 SC, more than 76,000 units of this first Porsche series sports car wereproduced from 1948 onwards, until it ceased production in 1965. The 356 SC produced an output of 95 hp from its 1.6 litre, air-cooled4-cylinder Boxer engine and reached a top speed of 185 kilometres per hour.
It wasn’t just the predecessor of the famous Porsche 911, it was also the first sports car built in series by Porsche: the Porsche 356. During its entire production period, from 1948 to 1965, more than 76,000 of the 356’s various development stages were produced. Our Porsche 356 from the Edition 1:64 corresponds to a 1962 Porsche Carrera 2 and in our model is shown on its way to a skiing holiday.

Porsche started to develop its first racing car in 1952 at its headquarters in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. This culminated in the launchof the Porsche 550 Spyder, which was based on the specs of the Porsche 356. This mid-engined car was equipped with a lightweight metal chassis and sported a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder boxer engine known as the ‘Fuhrmann’ engine. Weighing just 550 kg, the Porsche 550 Spyder helped the fledgling brand to develop its reputation as a manufacturer of lightweight, reliable and efficient sports cars. At the 24Hours of Le Mans in 1955, the 550 Spyder was driven by the racing duo Polenski/von Frankenberg, who came fourth overall and first inthe 1500 ccm vehicle class. Due to very high demand from racing drivers and well-heeled Porsche enthusiasts from the US, the 550Spyder soon received approval for road use and could be ordered for 24,600 German marks at Porsche dealers.
