Overview

Build a true legend of European long-haul trucking with the Italeri 1/24 scale Mercedes-Benz 2238 6×4. For a long time, this powerful three-axle tractor unit was the flagship of the Mercedes-Benz range, setting new standards for long-distance transport in the 1970s and 80s. With its powerful 375 horsepower engine and rugged 6×4 drivetrain, it was a common sight hauling heavy loads across the continent.

This highly detailed kit from Italeri is a rewarding project for the experienced truck modeller, resulting in an impressive 28cm long replica. The kit is packed with detail, from the fully replicated OM 422 engine to the intricate multi-part chassis and drivetrain. It’s a deep and satisfying build that accurately captures the complex engineering of these highway workhorses.

To complete this fantastic model, the kit includes a large sheet of high-quality decals with options to build one of two different versions of the truck. It’s the perfect opportunity for any fan of classic European trucks to add an iconic and impressive centrepiece to their collection.
