LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SERIES I Guisval Mini 1993 Die cast Blue 1:133

This diecast model depicts a Land Rover Discovery Series I from the budget Guisval Mini range of the early 1990s. The bodywork in an intense blue colour is based on a die-cast alloy casting, while the chassis and interior are made of plastic. The milky windows and cream-coloured headlights create a contrast, while the black wheels with simple balloon-style tyres emphasise the model's off-road character. The raised roof is fitted with two alpine windows above the rear section, adding credibility to the off-road design. A cast roof rack and roof-rack elements, characteristic of this range, are visible on the roof. The decals on the bonnet and roof, although only faintly remaining, are a reminder of the manufacturer's original decoration. The interior and chassis remain simple, with visible lines representing the upholstery and control elements made of plastic. The length of 34 mm corresponds to the real dimensions in 1:133 scale, while the simple casting without complex details conveys the character of budget models from the 1990s. This Discovery I version is recognisable by its large, rectangular windows and characteristic high roof; the typography and shape described reflect the principles of the Mini range, whose aim was an inexpensive, functional representation of popular off-road vehicles. This diecast model has collectible appeal thanks to its faithful representation of the shape and its almost undecorated yet carefully considered styling, which attracts enthusiasts of classic off-road vehicles from the early 1990s.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
