5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your die-cast model and figurine:

6. Troubleshooting
This die-cast model is a robust collectible. Should you encounter any issues, consider the following:
- Stiff Movable Parts (Doors, Hood, Trunk): If parts feel stiff, apply gentle, even pressure. Avoid forcing them open or closed. Do not apply lubricants, as this may damage the finish.
- Loose Parts: If any small parts become loose, they may be reattached with a small amount of model-safe adhesive. Exercise caution and refer to specialized hobby glues if necessary.
