This just arrived. It is my first purchase of a BOS model.....it bothers me, it seems too large for the scale. If it is accurate it must have been one Hell of a big automobile!

For me it's not 1/87th. What does it say scale on the packaging? BOS produces all scales.

Hello Jacques,
Here is the package it came in. I don't think it think it is 1/72 or 1/64 but it does look a little "oversized" for a 1/87 scale two seater.

Example: total length of the real model: 5090 m/m or at 1/87 scale: 58.5 m/m

I can't find it in the BOS-models catalog ?

C'était quand même une grosse voiture ! 5,10 m de long, et 2t100 pour un cabriolet, c'est de l'acier !!

Hello Jacques,

I measured the model and it is a little oversized: length: 60.6mm
My eyes are not easily deceived. width: 21.9mm
Height: 20.3mm
Here is the Horch 853A for comparison...
