Conslusion:
As I've expected the Norev version looses in nearly every category of the comparison.
But if you look at the model without the others and also notice the price, it's a nice model and doesn't need to hide!
I was a little bit suprised by the Minichamps' victories in many categories because when you look at it the first time, you'll think it's worse than the AutoArt version.
But especially the details unterneeth the body are great and at least as good as them from AutoArt.
All in all, the Minichamps model takes palce 2 because thay made some big mistakes - e.g. white hood, rear suspension... Without them, Minichamps would have taken the victory!
