Valentines Day is around the corner and Norev is all set to make it special even for us collector. Yeah Norev just dropped a bombshell of on their Facebook page and its a very car with some special significants. Yeah its a “Volvo 1800 ES (US Version) 1973 Pink” in 1:18 scale and its a “PMOY (Play Mate Of the Year) car”, car donated by Playboy Magazine to the Playmate of the Year, here in 1973, to Marilyn Cole.
This 1:18 scale Volvo 1800 ES (US Version) 1973 Pink is a replica of the original car donated to Playmate of the Year(1973) Marilyn Cole in the exact shade of pink and it also comes in limited numbers to make it even more exotic. This diecast scale model of Volvo 1800 ES 1973 gets working steering as well, which in my opinion is a great touch if you want to click some cool pics or display it in some way in your display cabinets.
Being a classic car, this Volvo 1800 ES (US Version) 1973 Pink is loaded with chrome bits all over. Even the wiper housing is finished in chrome, the bonnet exhaust cover is also chrome. Yeah, even the windshield washer was finished in chrome. The windshield of this 1:18 also gets a “playboy” sticker plaster on it to make it more authentic.
This Volvo 1800 ES 1973 will be an online exclusive and be limited to only 100pcs worldwide, so it gets a cool base with a numbered plank showing proudly its a limited edition diecast scale model. If you planing to get this do order as early as possible using this (buy now) link for €75.00 in Norev website, you may secure it if you get lucky.
Though this a diecast scale model, this is almost sealed except for the trunk. Yes, you heard me right this 1:18 Volvo 1800 ES 1973 gets only one opening feature and it is its rear tail gate and it has some cool hydraulics and chrome handles. The glass also gets some details like the defogger. The interior also get some leather like belt (don’t know what they are for) details, which are really nice with some chrome accents.
This pink Volvo 1800 ES 1973 will be available for grabs as early as now, and will disappear from Norev’s listing super fast. Priced at €75.00, it is quite a catch if you could get one. It would look good if placed next your Playboy poster. This pink Volvo will be followed by more and the next one is already here, which is a Volvo 1800 ES (US Version) 1973 in Sun Yellow available for grabs too. Stay tuned for more crazy cars like this Volvo 1800 ES 1973. Till next time… Ciao.
