This is my recently completed 1:24 scale panel van (the one with the jägermeister box art).

This kit has a number of firsts for me-

 

-The first non-aeroplane kit I've ever built

-The first non military kit I've ever built

-And the first kit I've ever uploaded on Britmodeller

 

All in all it I think it went rather well, with the exception of the doors that didn't seem to fit (the drivers door was too tight and the passenger door left a huge gap along the back of the door). However as I am the owner of a old beetle I can confirm that the doors never close quite right so it could have been intentional on revell's part.

Well, I'm sure you wouldn't be allowed to park that in Woodhall! Very tatty and all the better for it. Nice one, Alex

Looks like a great way to start out on here, you should be proud of that. I have this kit sitting in the stash and hope that when the time comes I can approach the quality you've achieved here. Thanks for mentioning the doors too, I'll try and remember that when I get around to this one.

Yep, your Bulli is looking real good.

I still remember the times when these T1 were still dayly drivers and looked just like yours..long time ago.

Thanks for showing your Modell

Very cool!  The patina looks great, and it's unusual to see one at the factory ride height, but all the better for it.  Seeing your build certainly makes me prefer the panel van version more than the samba or camper versions that Revell have also released.
