MODEL UPGRADES

August 2010

Available from 01 September! Bullis of yesteryear and today – WIKING’s model upgrades provide enthusiasts with a pleasant contrast: we see the crew cab of the VW T1 in the livery of “Fulda Reifen“ along with the VW transporter, a model which was once part of everyday life in Berlin for the model-makers at WIKING. Almost as a matter of course, the T5 is on the move as a high-quality van while also serving to help the emergency services and WIKING’s detailed models provide proof of this. But that is not all, the model upgrades for August also celebrate the history of WIKING and we see the return of long-forgotten classics: the Opel Rekord `57 returns as the “Ascona“ while the D2U Berlin double-decker bus joins the range advertising “Schultheiss“ beer to appease the thirst of collectors. It is always a pleasure to see Magirus square bonnet trucks again and so the Magirus Uranus crane truck makes an appearance in the livery of the Henker breakdown service. The VW LT 28 has found its way back into the range as an ice-cream van, as proof of the lighthearted side of the WIKING philosophy. Further additions to excite WIKING enthusiasts include the Kaelble bulldozer, Fahr and Porsche tractors as well as the Volvo 244 DLS and the Messerschmitt bubble car.
