Insights

Released and retired as part of the Classic theme, 1:87 12 Cars is a mid-1960s HO vehicle gift box whose limited Continental Europe release and brief production run left sealed examples scarce, and its lineup of recognisable VW, Mercedes and Citroën subjects draws cross-collector interest while trading remains thin and condition-sensitive.

Set Facts

The set is a gift box of 12 HO 1:87 scale vehicles, released in 1965 exclusively in Continental Europe, excluding the UK.
It includes a random assortment of vehicles such as the Morris Marina 1100, Citroën DS19, VW Beetle, Fiat 1800, Mercedes 190SL, Mercedes 220S, VW Van, VW Pickup, VW 1500, and Ford Taunus 17M.
Some models are included in duplicates, such as two Citroën DS19s and two VW Pickups, with variations in color and base designs.
The set was only released only in Continental Europe and not in the United Kingdom.
