Retro-inspired Tamiya 37014 - 1/35 Italian/German 508CM Coloniale Military Staff Car  [37014]

Tamiya 1/35 Italian / German 508CM Coloniale Staff Car Kit

This Tamiya 1/35 Italian / German 508CM Coloniale kit models a versatile Fiat staff car from 1937. Known for its use in North African operations, the 508CM Coloniale served Italian forces before being taken over by German units after 1943, making it a common sight in desert campaigns.

Kit highlights and historical overview

Developed with Italeri, the kit provides finely moulded parts and options to suit different field configurations. You can assemble it with an open or closed convertible roof, and the headlight parts are designed to reflect German wartime fittings for accurate restoration.

Display uses and modelling advice

Newly added components allow you to fit a closed convertible roof, giving options for display. The dual marking decals make it simple to present either Italian or German service, while the three figures help stage a realistic scenario for shelf or diorama display.
