Paris 1930s Renault bus model

This is a 1:43 model by Eligor of a Renault TN6C bus as used by the Parisian transport authority from the 1930s to the 1960s.  (Pschitt! was a brand of soda water created by Perrier in 1954, which for obvious reasons wasn't introduced into English speaking countries!)

Pictures with English descriptions of a preserved example of the real thing are on this webpage.
Below is another preserved example from 1935 seen in Chelles last October (bus-bild.de)
