About the Peugeot 407 Racing Silver Solido 1:18
TL;DR: The Solido Peugeot 407 1:18 diecast reproduces the mid-2000s French executive sedan in Racing Silver, notable for its dramatically swept headlights and low, coupe-like roofline. It is a mainstream diecast rather than a limited piece, well suited to a modern Peugeot or French sedan display at an accessible price.
Launched in 2004, the 407 gave Peugeot's mid-size sedan a far more aggressive face than its 406 predecessor, a design choice that split opinion but made the car instantly recognizable on European roads.
Solido's Take on a Distinctive Mainstream Shape
The 407's most talked-about feature was its nose, with headlights swept back into the front fenders and a grille that gave an otherwise ordinary family sedan an almost sporting look, and Solido's zinc alloy body reproduces that silhouette accurately, with a roofline that tapers lower than most sedans in its class. The Racing Silver finish sits smooth and even across the body panels, catching light well without the deeper metallic flake found on costlier resin pieces. Doors and the hood open on Solido's typical hinges, revealing a simplified cabin that gets the dashboard shape right without heavy detail work. This is a mainstream diecast built to a mid-market price point, and it should be judged on those terms: a recognizable, well-proportioned replica of a car most French buyers of the mid-2000s would remember seeing constantly on the road, rather than a hero piece aimed at rarity.
A Practical Addition to a Modern French Sedan Shelf
The 407 never carried the racing pedigree its striking looks might suggest. It was a company-car and family-sedan staple, sold in huge numbers across Europe, and this model's value lies in that everyday familiarity rather than any competition story. Solido, a French manufacturer with decades of history producing scale vehicles, brings a natural affinity for domestic subjects like the 407, treating a common company car with the same construction standard it applies across its road-car range. Set next to older Peugeot sedans, it shows how far the brand's design language shifted in the 2000s, trading conservative lines for something far more expressive. For a collector assembling a modern European sedan lineup on a reasonable budget, the 407 fills a real gap, since fewer manufacturers bother producing diecast of ordinary mid-2000s family cars.
