Did You Know? Anecdotes and Curiosities about our Miniatures

What makes Auto Plus model cars so sought after by collectors?

Auto Plus was a French brand specializing in collectible model cars from the 1980s and 1990s. Their models are distinguished by their meticulous workmanship and authentic details, including faithful reproductions of interiors and dashboards. The brand was particularly renowned for its models of French cars such as Peugeot, Renault, and Citroën of the period.
Why are some Auto Plus models rarer than others?

The rarity of Auto Plus models can be explained by several factors: some series were produced in very limited quantities, others were distributed only in certain regions or specialized stores. Promotional models offered with magazines or at events are particularly sought after because they were not sold to the general public.
How to identify a genuine Auto Plus model from a counterfeit?

Genuine Auto Plus models always bear the brand name engraved or molded under the chassis, along with the country of manufacture (often 'Made in France' or 'Made in China' for the latest productions). The quality of the finishes, the precision of the details, and the solidity of the assembly are also reliable indicators. The original boxes have a specific barcode and a distinctive Auto Plus logo.
What is the most common scale for Auto Plus cars?

Auto Plus primarily produced models in 1:43 scale, which remains the standard size for collectible model cars. This scale offers a good compromise between the level of detail possible and the required storage space. The brand also produced a few 1:64 scale models and exceptional 1:24 scale parts for some iconic cars.
Do Auto Plus models increase in value over time?

As with any collection, value depends on rarity, condition, and demand. Auto Plus models in perfect condition with their original box can increase in value, especially for limited editions or cars representing cult models. Classic French car models are particularly popular with nostalgic collectors.
