Default Little problem with my AutoArt M3 CSL

Sorry, if I am asking about a bit stupid thing. Yesterday I finnaly opened box with my M3 CSL. When I opened the hood to max, it stays opened. But then I am not able to close it. I started to collect 1:18 scale models just three months ago and I have only two AutoArt models. I tryed to push the hood down, but I do not want to damage it. Please, help me.

And I also want to ask, if there are some other persons except me here, which are collecting car brochures. If yes, then I think that this forum should also have a section about that. If there is such section allready, then sorry, I do not know that, write me address.

Thanks.

As we're going right OT here... I've always fancied a 1974 911. Why 1974? First of all I am trying to be realistic and of course I can't afford a 2005 model, 2nd look at my age...

I had the exact same problem, and I returned it to the store and they gave me another one that was good.

try pulling the hood outward and moving it sideways .. coz some of these model have a kind of a base that will allow the hood to stay open....

By the way.. If everso is getting a Bugatti Veyron and cooperluke a nine-eleven then I'm getting a GT40 The real GT40 not a Ford GT
