Citroën SM proto by otto models

Sneak peak of my newest acquisition. The Citroën sm proto made by otto models. I just got it, there will be better pics up soon but I'm in my car to work at the moment. In the brief moments I was able to look at this one, I feel confident to say this is the most detailed model from otto citroën this far. Whats your opinion?

    it looks terrific, awesome.
    was it a static proto or did it ran any race?
    awaiting more photos...

    It was a prototype Citroën made to enhance the current SM. it is shorter, wider, and runs on a 380HP V6 from masserati. There is only one model like this, now resting in Citroëns concervatoire, but a lot of variants where made for racing for example in the 1973 rally of Bandama.

    The prototype is not static but has a running engine, you can see it here:

      It's not a Dakar, but a prototype. the 1/18th scale is excellent to appreciate the little details!

      Greets AccroCitroën!
