Mercedes 300CE-24 A124 Cabriolet Almandine Red Metallic Norev 1:18
Mercedes 300CE-24 A124 Cabriolet Almandine Red Metallic Norev 1:18
Sold out
1/8
Norev's 1:18 diecast Mercedes 300CE-24 A124 Cabriolet is finished in Almandine Red Metallic and captures the W124 platform's convertible bodywork. Sold as a used model with opening doors and boot; the box shows traces of storage, the casting itself unaffected. A period piece for anyone building a 1990s Mercedes convertible display.
About the Mercedes 300CE-24 A124 Cabriolet Almandine Red Metallic Norev 1:18
TL;DR: This 1:18 diecast Mercedes 300CE-24 A124 Cabriolet from Norev wears Almandine Red Metallic paint over the W124 convertible bodywork, with opening doors and boot. It is a used model and the outer box shows traces of storage, though the model itself is unaffected. A solid entry into a 1990s Mercedes convertible lineup.
The W124 Cabriolet took Mercedes' famously stiff mid-size saloon and turned it into an open-top grand tourer, and this Norev replica keeps that engineering-first character intact.
Diecast Construction and the Almandine Red Finish
Zinc alloy gives this model real heft for its size, a density that immediately signals proper diecast rather than a lightweight toy. Norev's cast lines around the door shuts and boot line are consistent rather than razor-fine, which is the honest trade-off at this price tier against hand-finished resin. Almandine Red Metallic carries a deep, slightly wine-toned flake that reads differently to a brighter solid red, particularly under direct light where the metallic particles catch. The doors swing open with a defined stop and the boot lifts to reveal a simplified but presentable interior, giving a genuine sense of the cabriolet's proportions with the roof down. As a used example, expect the usual signs of prior ownership; the box itself carries traces of storage rather than anything affecting the casting.
The W124 Cabriolet's Engineering Reputation
Mercedes built the W124 platform to a reputation for over-engineering, and the cabriolet body, finished with body panels completed at Karmann, added extensive reinforcement to keep the chassis rigid without a fixed roof. The "24" in the badge refers to the four-valve-per-cylinder head fitted to the six-cylinder engine, a performance step up from the standard 300CE. That combination of open-top style and engineering solidity is exactly why this generation still draws steady collector interest decades on.
Where This Cabriolet Sits in a Mercedes Collection
At roughly 22cm long, the 1:18 scale gives the cabriolet enough shelf presence to sit comfortably alongside coupes and saloons from the same era without disappearing. Displaying it top-down beside a hardtop W124 shows the platform's range in one glance. Keep it out of strong sunlight, since metallic reds are among the first colours to fade, and a soft brush across the flat boot lid keeps dust from settling. As a used piece with honestly disclosed storage wear on the box, it represents a fair way to add a 1990s Mercedes convertible without paying new-model pricing.
