Heller 56704 Hispano Suiza K6 Starter Set

The Hispano-Suiza K6 is a Spanish luxury passenger car that was first presented to the public in 1933. Its serial production started a year later and continued until 1939. The car was powered by a single, 5.2-liter, 125hp 6-cylinder engine. The wheelbase in the "short" version was 3.4 meters, and in the "long" version - 3.72 meters. In total, about 1,000 cars of this model were built.

The K6 model was developed and put into production by Hispano-Suiza as a specific complement to the J12 model. The new car had a completely new 6-cylinder power unit and had many advantages. It had fantastic road characteristics, powerful brakes, good driving dynamics and an overall very high quality of workmanship. It also provided passengers with high travel comfort. Also the body of the car (both in the convertible and limousine versions) was considered one of the most beautiful among the cars produced in the 1930s. Given all these elements, it is not surprising that the Hispano-Suiza K6 was quite commercially successful, and today its individual extant units are priced at $ 2.3 million!
