Any word on the release date? All I heard was it was pushed into November...

[Luis Pacheco]

Looks like a Tamiya kit. Even the instruction sheet has the same layout.
Fantastic!

[racer93]

So, if I read their site right, this is looking set for an October '11 release? Am I right?

[Luis Pacheco]

October????

The last information from Similr tells March the release date.

It was on the Domino.be website. It may be old, but it said October release...

[Luis Pacheco]

October 2010!

It´s old.

Similr owners told some days ago in a french forum they had a problem with the rubber tires molds.

That's correct, the release date should be in the beginning of March 2011, as latest... but who knows

From a French forum:

Once again, all apologies for the delay, we cumulate every kind of problems! bad Karma

Hi Nico,

No apologies please.
Just keep up your good work!
I understand Simil R is not Tamiya or an other major kit company.
Just can't wait to get my hands on one of your kits.
The sprues I have seen are looking great!
Is the Citroën DS3 still in planning for your next kit?

[Vladamor]

Really the Citroen DS3 is going to be your next kit??

No need to apologise.

And maybe they're not Tamiya, but looks like they have the same or even better quality.

REGARDS

Just got my kit from Domino. Looks very good I must say. Mouldings close to Tamiya quality with Cartograf decals, etch and springs for the shockabsorbers. If Tamiya don't want to bring us any new WRC cars anymore pleas go ahead Simil'R - bring e'm on :-)

Only improvement I can see I will do is some proper seatbelts to replace the decals.
