Completed: Provence Miniatures 1/43rd Suzuki Ignis S1600

Here's something a bit different.
The kit is a Provence Miniatures Automobiles Suzuki Ignis S1600 "Monte Carlo". It is about 3.5 inches long!
Basically resin with a white-metal rollcage, turned aluminium wheels, and lots of photo-etch. The only extras I used were Eduard p/e seatbelts and, although I've seen some people have problems, they worked really nicely.
Paint was Halfords white plastic primer then Tamiya TS16 yellow.
The only problems I experienced was that the decals took AGES to soften with MicroSol/Set but it all worked out ok in the end.
Nice little kit and quite a quick build. I'm looking forward to the PMA "full detail" Suzuki Swift S1600...
