08.05.2017Premiere for First43: Mazda CX-5 new in 1:43

Actually, today the Porsche 924 Turbo from Spark should give a guest appeARANCE, but this model car was sold so fast that we could not even take the photos of it. So let's tackle  a Mazda at the start of the week and look at the miniatures of First43 Models, a label from the Far East, which we have not visited yet. But in the future, this will perhaps change, as the models made from diecast of the Mazda CX-5 in the 1:43 scale look absolutely promising and testify of a love for the craft, which must be very distinctive with the manufacturers. The finish of components such as radiator grille masks, windscreen wipers and exterior mirrors could not be explained differently, because First43 is convincing in this segment as well as in the overall assumption of the model car model available in two colors.

The miniature edition of the Mazda CX-5 introduced into the German market on the 28th of April 2012 takes the origin version of the mid-class SUV as model. As usual in this format, the doors and hoods remain closed. The CX-5 debuted with two biturbo diesel engines. The four-cylinder four-cylinder engines brought in just under 2.2 liters displacement per 110 kW / 150 hp or 129 kW / 175 hp and extended their power to the driven front wheels or 4-wheel drive of the more powerful version. The 118 kW / 160 hp petrol engine continued the power of its 2.0-liter engine to the all-wheel drive; The version with 121 kW / 165 HP only forward. It was switched with six gears - either automatically or by hand.

The model car to the CX-5 in detail

The first-class model cars of First43 in the area of ??the front apron, where we find neatly used grilles as well as headlights, which are tightly fitted to the body made of diecast. The circulating fender extensions / sills are painted clean in color; The imitations of the aluminum wheels correspond to the higher state of the art. The door handles are only engraved, but deeply and meaningfully implemented. Photo etches for the windshield wipers are unusual in this price class. The rear-view mirrors are excellently matched, the details inside the interior excellently simulated. Both models are designed as a right-hand drive. Tinted windows in the rear and the navigation antenna round off the very good impression made by the model car. Its appearance is perfectly in line with that of the model. We are already looking forward to more cars from this supplier.
