The realism of many 1:18 scale models is amazing. Set against the right backdrop and they create a lifelike scene out of an ordinary world. The realism is limited only by the imagination and skills of the modeler. One of the best at creating these scenes is the person behind the Minature Automobiles YouTube Channel, who just released this video of a scale model Mercedes-Benz Citan making auto part deliveries.
The Mercedes-Benz Citan is a small van similar to the Nissan NV200 or Ford Transit Connect. Popular in other parts of the world, these vehicles strike a balance between their small size and ample cargo room, making them versatile delivery vehicles. However, small vans never quite caught on in the US, which prefers vans like the large Ram ProMaster or full-size Ford Transit.
