BMW 3.0 CS white (Minichamps) 1:43
Launched in 1968 and succeeding the 2000 CS coupe with a bigger engine and a modernized silhouette, the 2800 CS is the predecessor of the first-gen 6 Series, which will be released in 1976. In March 1971, the 2800 CS coupe becomes this 3.0 CS, whose rebored 6-cylinder engine is no longer a 168 hp 2.8-litre but a 180 hp 3-litre. A CSi injection version is also available.
Volvo 480 Turbo white (Minichamps) 1:87
This peculiar coupe was released in 1986, two years before the 440 sedan that shares its platform. This approach is opposite to that generally chosen by manufacturers. The 480 was Volvo’s first front-wheel drive, developed in the Netherlands (in the former offices of DAF, a brand bought by Volvo). The cabin offered four seats and the car received a Renault engine, with or without turbo.

Volvo 740 GL green (Minichamps) 1:18
Those who like the 240’s taut lines were delighted when Volvo introduced the series 700, in 1982. This large family car was first released as the 760, with V6 engines. Later, Volvo launched the 740 with 4-cylinder blocks. In 1985, the estate joined the range. The career of the series 700 continued in 1992 when it was restyled and renamed 940 and 960, and lasted until 1998.
