The Moskvich 408 was launched in 1964. This Soviet model succeeded the 403 (Moskvich, not Peugeot!), with a more modern silhouette. On the contrary, the engine was rather outdated. This reproduction of the Russian model car manufacturer Avtomobili Rossii dates back to the 1970s and was discontinued only recently. This miniature was imported directly from Russia.

Before WWII, Kim copied the Opel Kadett for its own cars. But after the war, the first Moskvich models were actually real Opel Kadetts, whose tooling was part of the reparations package. This 400-420 sedan was launched in 1946, and the convertible 400-420A was released in 1954. Their production did not last long since this family of models disappeared in 1956. Also available in gray.

As its name suggests, Moskvich cars were built in a plant located in Moscow. This brand was originally called Kim, then became MZMA in 1947, and eventually Moskvich. The 408, launched in late 1964, was a classic but rather elegant sedan, technically close to the 407 to which it succeeded. The 408 was equipped with four round headlights. They turned rectangle on the 412, launched in 1967.
