    I wouldn't be surprised if no-one knows of this vehicle because barely anyone nowadays has even heard of Talbot or Matra. It was produced from 1977 to 1984 and can be considered to be the predecessor to the modern MPV, being that it had as many seats and spawned a successor in the Renault Espace.

    Uses Saffron's wheel mesh. I was really pleased to find a model of this as this vehicle has interested me for a long time. This RV interpretation plays true to what you'd expect from a leisurely vehicle, what it lacks in speed and acceleration, because the real car only had about 80 BHP, is made up by the sturdiness and FWD handling.

    Make sure you have enough speed when going uphill as it will start to run out of steam if you don't make it over quickly enough. So while it has it's weaknesses, play to it's strengths and it may surprise you. I honestly think this is one of the most fun cars I've made in a long while.

    The original model was scratch made for Sports Car GT by SCGT4Ever.
