This is the 1970 Fiat 850 Carabinieri Blue/White w/ Brown Interior in 1:18 scale.
The 1970 Fiat 850 Carabinieri is a unique iteration of Fiat’s popular 850 model, specially modified for Italy's national police force. This small yet nimble car was equipped with special features such as sirens, police radios, and enhanced lighting, making it ideal for urban patrolling in crowded environments. Unlike many larger police vehicles, the Fiat 850 Carabinieri stood out due to its compact size, which allowed for better maneuverability and easier navigation through Italy's narrow streets and dense traffic. Its lightweight design and efficient engine allowed for quick responses, which set it apart from the competition in the police vehicle market of the era. This particular model is a rare piece of automotive history, as it not only served functional purposes but also symbolized the unique combination of Italian engineering and police authority, distinguishing it from traditional police vehicles globally.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
