Norev's 1:18 diecast Volvo 123 GT in red reproduces the sportier, twin-carburettor version of the Amazon, developed partly with period rallying in mind. A more purposeful sibling to the standard sedan, in accurate diecast scale.
TL;DR: Norev's 1:18 diecast Volvo 123 GT in red reproduces the 1968 sporting version of the Amazon, tuned for extra performance and used in period rallying. Solid diecast build with sharp badging detail gives it more character than the standard sedan it is based on.
Take a dependable family sedan, fit twin carburettors and a close-ratio gearbox, and the result is a car Volvo was happy to see competing rather than only commuting.
A Sportier Build Than the Standard Amazon
Norev shares the Amazon's basic body tooling with this 123 GT, but the details tell the sportier story: red paintwork with crisper GT badging picked out in tampo print, and a wheel design that hints at the model's rally-inflected specification without needing a spoiler or bodykit to make the point. Diecast construction gives the model its expected solidity, and the panel lines hold the same even quality found across Norev's Amazon-based castings. It is a subtle differentiation exercise rather than a dramatic one, which matches the real car: the 123 GT looked almost identical to a standard Amazon at a glance, and its extra performance lived mostly under the bonnet and in the driving experience rather than in visible styling.
A Family Sedan With Rallying in Its Blood
Volvo built the 123 GT with an eye toward rallying's amateur and semi-professional scenes in the 1960s, giving an otherwise conservative sedan a genuine performance edge without abandoning its practical roots. That dual identity, sensible sedan by day, capable rally-bred machine underneath, makes it a natural pairing with a standard Amazon on a Swedish classics shelf, showing collectors both ends of the same platform's personality.
