Trabant 601, model, 1420 parts, from 10 years old
An absolute novelty in the COBI range and the start of a completely new car series. A technically mature block set in the large 1:12 model measures up to 30 cm in length. The car, released under the original licence of the TRABANT brand, was designed with 1,420 elements. The model is characterised by the use of only high-quality prints! Cobi has completely dispensed with stickers. Especially for the needs of such large sets, new elements were developed that offer additional functionalities. Movable steering wheel to turn the wheels, hinges to open doors, body parts. Under the tilting bonnet there is a brick-mapping engine. In the rear area there is a characteristic first aid box. Numerous details such as door handles, lighting and clocks form a coherent whole with the perfectly reproduced characteristic shape of this vehicle. The perfect model for collectors and lovers of classic motoring. Clear and intuitive instructions guiding through the next steps and blocks in numbered bags ensure a smooth and satisfying building process.
Trabant is a brand of car manufactured in the GDR at the VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke in Zwickau. The 601 model came onto the market in 1964 and was produced until 1990. Several technically interesting solutions were used in Trabant cars. These included bodies made of plastic called Duroplast. It had a similar melting point to aluminium and increased the car's resistance to corrosion and pressure. Other notable solutions included a small two-stroke engine, large windows and a relatively spacious interior. The car developed a dizzying speed of just over 100 km/h.
The Trabant can rightly be called a cult car from the GDR. To this day, it is a recognisable and extremely popular classic among car enthusiasts. It also became a part of mass culture forever.
