About the Simca 1100 GLS Borodine Green Norev 1:18

TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Simca 1100 GLS reproduces the late-1960s French family hatchback in Borodine Green with a sealed, one-piece body. The model arrives new with new packaging. A practical, everyday shape that anchors a French marque or modern classics collection.

The Simca 1100 helped popularize the front-wheel-drive hatchback layout in France well before the format became a European default. Norev's diecast treats this everyday pioneer with genuine care at 1:18.

Diecast Simplicity and Sealed Body

The body here is sealed, which suits a subject whose appeal lies in honest, unpretentious styling rather than dramatic panel lines. Everything reads on the exterior: the simple grille treatment, the practical greenhouse glazing that made the 1100 a genuinely useful family car, and how the Borodine Green sits across the flat door panels. Zinc alloy construction gives the casting real weight for its compact size, and the tooling holds clean, consistent shutlines along the hatchback's rear opening even without functioning hinges, a construction choice appropriate for a car whose original charm was practicality rather than drama.

An Everyday French Classic for the Shelf

The 1100 occupies an important but often overlooked place in French automotive history, bridging the gap between older rear-engine and rear-wheel-drive layouts and the front-wheel-drive hatchback format that would dominate the segment for decades afterward. Arriving new with undisturbed packaging, this piece rewards a collector building a French marque display or tracing the evolution of the compact family car through the postwar decades. At 1:18 its boxy, upright proportions contrast usefully against sportier subjects on the same shelf, and Borodine Green is a period-correct color that adds authenticity rather than flash. It is not a glamour piece, and it does not need to be: honest, everyday design has its own quiet appeal.
