Key Features & Highlights

• Scale 1 / 35 plastic assembly kit recreating the 508 CM “Coloniale” staff car. 
• Designed for off-road use: reliable 1,100 cc 4-cylinder engine, rugged tyres, 2-wheel drive.
• Includes two crew figures and decal sheets for multiple marking options (Italian & German units).
• Well-engineered moulding, clean sprues and high fit quality typical of Italeri kits. 

How to Build & Modeling Tips

- Start by removing flash and trimming sprues for clean parts.
- Paint interior and chassis components before full assembly to access hidden areas.
- If depicting off-road use, consider adding dust and mud effects around tyres and lower body.
- Use fine washes for panel lines and tyre treads to enhance realism.
- Position the figures to create a narrative—staff car arriving at command post, or recon mission in Africa.

Why Add This Kit to Your Collection?

The 508 CM “Coloniale” is a distinct vehicle, often overshadowed by tanks—but vital for command, recon and staff mobility in the North African and European theatres. This kit offers buildability, accuracy and a standout subject for any WWII armour enthusiast.
