CMC Classic Model Car (HK) - 1938 Bugatti 57 SC Atlantic Coupe (HK$2,928)

This hand-assembled metal model is composed of about 1,700 parts, incorporating all the details of the original rare car from its riveted dorsal seam to the 'eye-shaped' headlamps. The replicated radiator grille is made of metal with a mirror-like finish, while all windows - in exact scale - are framed in stainless steel. The door interior lining is sewn with functional pockets, and the dashboard is true to the original with all instruments and controls. The double-winged bonnet opens all the way to rest on two metal heads. The cooler and tank latches can also be opened.

Until October 31, the Gurus pop-up store in the basement of The Landmark in Central is offering exact-scale replicas created by the British model maker of some of the world's most desirable road cars, Formula One racing cars and classic cars - including this orange sports car with its butterfly doors. While 250 hours are needed to finish each handmade model, customers can request their own tailor-made model capturing every detail - from its colour and number plates to the interior and exterior finishes. Eye-catching options include the bright red Ferrari 599 GTO (HK$51,000) and Redbull Racing's Formula One car (HK$39,000).
