Product# G075 / OT885
Bought the Saviem this afternoon. Sold out exactly three hours after I received the e-mail from OttoMobile.
I think it looks great, especially with any 70s car. And the good thing is it doesn’t take up much more space that way.
Wow, I would what the online allotment was. Is this model that popular in Europe?
Just for once I was following the number in stock, and it went down really fast.
Apparently once you put something in the cart, the number of items available reduces as well.
As a Dutchman born around the time of release of the actual vehicle, I don’t recall this particular model, but it does breathe the style of that era. Plus it’s a car transporter, which I (and likely many others) find an interesting subject in itself. Taking also into account the attractive price and colour scheme, it seems like a winner. To the French I suppose it’s more recognizable.
By the way, if I remember well, when I bought it some 20 minutes after receiving the e-mail, I saw that around 800 pieces were still available.
