This Citroën 2 CV Fire-Ball façon Rumbalotte offers an artistic, spectacular take on the iconic French "Deudeuche". This 1/43 scale model turns the 2 CV's legendary simplicity into a fantastic dragster-style hot rod, perfectly capturing the creative, offbeat spirit surrounding this mythical car.
More than a simple replica, this one-of-a-kind piece stands out as an exceptional collector's item, showcasing the extraordinary cultural influence the 2 CV has had on French and international car culture.
Launched in 1948 at the Paris Motor Show, the Citroën 2 CV revolutionised the concept of the people's car. Designed in the 1930s by André Lefèbvre and Flaminio Bertoni, it met the bold brief set by Pierre-Jules Boulanger: carry two farmers in clogs, 50 kg of potatoes or a small barrel, at 60 km/h, while using 3 litres per 100 kilometres.
Its legendary mechanical simplicity and revolutionary design quickly made it a symbol of freedom and escape. With its interconnected spring suspension, corrugated bodywork and air-cooled twin-cylinder engine, the 2 CV has moved through the decades adapting to the needs of each era.

Always delivered within the agreed deadlines, well-packaged and protected materials. Nothing negative to report. A constantly renewed range that, despite the intention to remain cautious, always finds new temptations...

I placed my second order and everything went smoothly, delivery without issues, items in good condition, and delivered on time. After this second order, I can only recommend the site to Bernardminiature, a serious person. Top delivery, thanks again to him and good for a next order.

In addition to the fact that the 1/43 miniatures received are perfectly in line with the photographs and my expectations and are of great finesse, they arrived very quickly (I was even informed of the shipment) and very carefully packaged. Very satisfied, I placed a new order with Bernard Miniatures, a seller I recommend for their selection and reliability.
The scale is the reduction ratio between the real car and the model. At 1:43 scale, for example, every centimetre of the model represents 43 centimetres of the real vehicle.
In practice, a 1:18 Ferrari model is about 25–30 cm long, while at 1:43 it measures roughly 10 cm.
Our model cars mainly come in 1:43, 1:24, 1:18 and 1:87 (HO) scale. The scale is always listed on the product page.
The smaller the second number, the bigger the model (e.g. 1:18 is larger than 1:43).
Yes, every model car ships in its protective box. The box preserves its collector value and protects your model from dust and knocks.
We pack every order with great care: bubble wrap, snug padding and polystyrene. Your model car is fully secured on its way to you.
In-stock items ship within 24–48h. Allow 2–3 business days for mainland France with Colissimo, or 4–5 days with Mondial Relay.
I can't say exactly when new stock will arrive, as it comes in a trickle. Feel free to contact me and I'll let you know as soon as it's available.
