Mitsubishi in miniature: thousands of models by appointment

In Borne, a private collector shows more than 6,500 Mitsubishi scale models, supplemented by brochures and brand merchandise.

Plan your visit ↗

One brand, many scales

Compare the same car model in two sizes and note which details disappear and which are emphasised instead. Scale determines not only size but also what can be made.

Models from Japan

Exchanges with a Japanese collector brought in material that was not available in the Netherlands. With such a model, ask about the packaging and the market, because that documentation makes the difference visible.

Brochures beside the display cases

Advertising brochures and merchandise show how the real cars were presented. Put a brochure image next to the model and compare colour, version and the identity it promised.

Before you go

This museum is located at a residence and can be visited by appointment only. The official name is Marcels Mitsubishi Modelcar Museum.
