This is the 1978 De Tomaso Deauville Silver in 1:18 scale by Maxima.

The 1978 De Tomaso Deauville was a bold Italian luxury sedan that dared to challenge the likes of Jaguar and Mercedes with its unique blend of exotic flair and American muscle. Designed by Tom Tjaarda at Ghia, the Deauville featured sharp, elegant lines and a spacious, leather-clad interior, all powered by a robust 5.8L Ford Cleveland V8. What set it apart was its rare combination of hand-built Italian craftsmanship with the reliability and grunt of a Ford engine, offering a distinctive driving experience that stood out in the European luxury sedan market of the late 1970s.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
