04/11/2024: I have now released a  bigger 1:12 version  

----------------------

This is the new 3008 ; the body is hollow so it could be used on a RC chassis of this scale (depending on the clearance you need).  The wheelbase is 114 mm (it's the scaled original wheelbase of the new 3008).

I tried to make it as accurate as possible even though my blueprints were rather poor and for some reason I had decided that I would be using Fusion 360 surface tools, 3D sketches and splines - which didn't make it easy (!)  I beat my record number of bodies in a single F360 design (more than 3000 !) and discovered a bunch of new F360 bugs !

I'm first publishing a 1:24 version; the model is split into the main body and a number of small parts intended to make it look more real as you can easily use other filament colors.

For instance 

• the tail lights should be red
• the front main lights and the claw lights could be white 
• the grill, the vents and the 3008 front sign background should be black
• the Peugeot lion, the 3008 number  and the Peugeot brand (back) should be printed in 2 colors (black then light grey for the last layers ); for the E3008 sign - use body color then light grey

You will need to paint the rear bumper and the front main vent in black together with the lower parts of the doors and the wheel arches. For the grill, it's not really possible to achieve the real look because you would need to paint all the little squares in the same color as the body. Maybe on the bigger version !

The small parts have quite a lot of tolerance so they should mount despite the supports on the main body making some areas messy.
