Has anyone else seen the article in this months Diecast Collector magazine about the Chevette HS? Apparantley Ixo did a deal with deal with Trofeu that sees the Portugese company using Ixo's mouldings and parts to make the Shuvvit and release it themselves. Explains why the HS appeared in Trofeu's range so quickly after it was announced rather than the normal 3 year wait!

Trofeu, but only slightly. Wiper blades are finer. Ariel is metal. Other than that pretty much the same i'd say.
Buy a good built Arena kit, far better Laughing
