About the Meyers Manx Blue Soft Top Solido 1:18

TL;DR: Solido's 1:18 diecast Meyers Manx reproduces the original fiberglass dune buggy in blue with its soft top raised. Built on Volkswagen Beetle mechanicals, the Manx launched a whole genre of American buggies, and this diecast captures its stripped-down, playful proportions.

Few cars look as purpose-built for fun as the Meyers Manx, and a diecast of one has to get that lighthearted attitude right.

Diecast Playfulness for a Fiberglass Original

Solido's build captures the Manx's exposed wheel arches, short wheelbase, and simple soft top raised over an open cabin, all rendered with the kind of clean, uncluttered surfacing the original fiberglass body actually had. The blue finish sits bright and glossy, matching the fun, beach-culture color palette these buggies were typically finished in. Diecast construction gives the small buggy real heft despite its toylike proportions, and the model's stripped-back interior, visible through the open sides, stays true to a car that was never meant to hide its mechanical simplicity.

The Buggy That Started a Genre

Bruce Meyers built the original Manx by combining a shortened Volkswagen Beetle chassis with a lightweight fiberglass body, creating a vehicle capable of both beach cruising and desert racing that soon inspired a wave of imitators across the American kit-car scene. That combination of simplicity and versatility is exactly why the Manx still holds cultural weight among off-road and custom-car enthusiasts today. Displayed among more conventional street cars, this buggy brings a genuinely different, freewheeling energy to a special and unique models shelf.
