About the Ford Taunus 17M P2 Light Blue & White BoS Models 1:18

TL;DR: BoS Models' 1:18 diecast Ford Taunus 17M P2 reproduces Ford Germany's rounded 1957 saloon in light blue and white. This niche subject gives a vintage German saloon shelf a genuinely uncommon alternative to the far more frequently modelled Mercedes and BMW of the same period.

Ford's German operation built a saloon in the late 1950s with curves ambitious enough to earn its own affectionate nickname among enthusiasts, and this Taunus 17M shows exactly why.

A Specialist Diecast for an Overlooked Subject

BoS Models focuses on subjects the larger diecast houses tend to skip, and this Taunus 17M P2 is a good example, a genuinely rounded, flowing saloon shape rarely reproduced by mainstream manufacturers. Light blue and white paint suits the era's two-tone fashion well, and the model's diecast build carries the weight and detail this specialist brand is known for, including accurate period trim and badge detail that a mass-market alternative would likely simplify.

An Overlooked Chapter of Ford's German History

Ford of Germany built the Taunus 17M through the late 1950s as a genuinely home-market design, distinct from contemporary British Fords and rarely seen outside continental Europe at the time. Its flowing, curvaceous styling earned it comparisons to the more famous rounded Mercedes and BMW saloons of the same decade, though it never achieved their lasting fame. For a UK collector building a European classics shelf, this Taunus offers real rarity value, a genuinely uncommon subject rather than another Mercedes or Jaguar repeat.
