Kapitan P 2.5 L - Miniature Pet # 1 ( Japan )
 
     Maybe the rarest and more expensive of all 1/ 43 Opel models are these japanese Miniature Pet . Curiously the nr 1 was also the last model made , before changing name . Made in the 1960's , we find one piece model , well done , body including bumpers and finely engraved grille , etc . I don't know how many colors were available but at least two colors , metallic blue and brow with tin base , lithographed interior and cardboard box . Tin base and specialy lithographed tin interior aren't easy to find in 1/43 models , but curiously the german Rex model also has a tin base . # 4090 , the metallic blue model has a perfect body but is unboxed and has one dent on the base , while the brown # 4093 is MB . These models are always rare and very expensive .
