Review and Photos by Alan Mann \"Alan<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0After an incredible, decades long run, the iconic VW Beetle was replaced. The Volkswagen Golf, or Volkswagen Rabbit in the United States, is a small family car produced by the German manufacturer Volkswagen since 1974. The vehicles transverse-mounted 4-cylinder water-cooled engine and front wheel drive gave it unprecedented efficiency by comparison to contemporary American vehicles. Despite this, sales were slow until sharp increases in oil prices drove a commensurate spike in VW sales. The original Rabbit was a front-wheel drive, front-engine replacement for the air-cooled, rear-engine, rear-wheel drive Volkswagen Beetle. Historically, the Rabbit is Volkswagen’s best-selling model and the world’s second best-selling model, with more than 29 million built by 2012.<\/p>\n

For the Modeler:<\/strong> This review covers the Revell California Wheels series kit #85-4333 VW Rabbit in 1:24 scale. This is a direct Re-release (Re-Pop) from the Revell Germany VW Golf. There have been multiple releases in different box arts over the years. Revell \"1\"<\/a> rates this as a Skill Level 2 for the moderate builder. There are 141 parts molded in White, Chrome, Clear and includes Vinyl tires and a full decal sheet. The Instruction sheet is in a well laid out Book format typical of the Revell style as of late. There is a nicely detailed motor and full engine bay. The chassis is also highly detailed with a good suspension. The interior is a multiple part set up with separate door panels for ease of detailing. There are two dashboards, a Left Hand and Right Hand drive, to make a foreign or US version. The body is clean and has no mold lines.\u00c2\u00a0 The front and rear panels are separate and installed after painting. The decal sheet is very detailed with exterior badges, interior instruments, exterior moldings and stripes, and chrome work. This is a high detail kit. Overall completed dimensions are: Length: 6-1\/4″, Width: 2-11\/16″, Height: 2-1\/4″.<\/p>\n
