About the Citroen SM Orient Blue Norev 1:18

TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Citroen SM reproduces the 1972 Maserati-engined GT in Orient Blue, with opening doors and bonnet. This is a used example, box showing traces of storage, model unaffected. A deeper, more formal colour choice for a collector already familiar with the SM's engineering story.

Orient Blue reads more restrained than lighter SM colour options, giving this particular casting a formal, almost diplomatic character that suits the car's genuinely unusual engineering underneath.

Diecast Build and Colour Treatment

Zinc alloy gives the body real weight, matching a car whose original hydropneumatic suspension and complex steering system made it one of the most technically advanced GTs of its decade. Doors and bonnet open, revealing a simplified version of the SM's distinctive single-spoke steering wheel and oval instrument cluster, a genuinely unusual layout worth seeking out even at this level of detail. The Orient Blue paint carries a deep, slightly cooler tone than lighter blue options, holding an even gloss under direct light. This is a used model, and the box shows traces of storage; the casting itself presents without that wear.

The Same Ambitious Engineering, A Different Mood

Beneath any colour, the SM remains the same technical statement: Citroen's advanced chassis paired with a Maserati-developed V6, self-levelling suspension and variable-assist steering that made the car feel genuinely futuristic for 1972. That engineering ambition eventually strained the car's reliability reputation, but its influence on later grand tourers and its sheer originality remain undiminished regardless of paint finish.

A Second SM for a Growing Collection

For a collector who already owns an SM in a lighter shade, this deeper Orient Blue example offers genuine colour variety rather than a redundant duplicate, useful for a small comparative display of the same model across its production run. Its opening features remain a genuine handling pleasure regardless of finish.
