Minicar 1/43 Monte Verdi (MBM) Turismo 1962 [05042]

Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

Product Description Peter Monteverdi, a Swiss, has been selling cars under the brand name MBM since 1962. He was thinking about a small, sporty car and tried to obtain a road-use permit for it.
A reading of Monteverdi's chronicle shows that he designed the car himself based on inspiration he had gained at a London trade show. It was then released to the public under the name MBM Turismo.
The manufacturer seemed to have planned for mass production, and although reports at the time said that 100 cars had already been produced, that was only a hypothesis, and that mass production had not actually been achieved.
Details of the exact number of cars are circulating, from one to three to five, as described in Monteverdi's chronicle.
In addition to the above, there was another view.
Heron Plastics, a manufacturer of plastic bodies in Greenwich, England, developed a sporty speedstar called Heron Europe, and released it to the public in 1962 at the Racing Show.
Heron Plastics sold the sports car as a kit for 580 pounds, and a roughly assembled version for 730 pounds. Only 12 cars were shipped from a British factory.
Compared to MBM, the similarities are striking only with subtle differences in the body. Compared to MBM, Peter Monteverdi did not design the car but tried to sell a British design under his own name.
