Norev Mercedes Renntransporter and W196 Set 311000: What Is Included?

Published September 23, 2026 by Muncle Mikes

Norev 311000 blue Mercedes-Benz Renntransporter with included silver 1954 W196 number 1, 1:64

Norev set 311000 includes two vehicles: a blue Mercedes-Benz Renntransporter and a silver 1954 W196 No. 1. It is a coordinated 1:64 offer, not a truck-only listing whose race car is merely a display prop.

Choose it when you want a compact transport-themed display with the named load already included. It should not be confused with a larger 1:18 transporter or a universal working carrier for every small diecast car.

Identify the complete package

The Renntransporter and W196 set names both the truck and the silver race car. The listing specifies no opening body panels.

Do not expect opening cab doors, an engine cover or a moving loading mechanism unless those functions are expressly added to the product information. A truck shaped to carry a model car is not necessarily an operating toy transporter.

The No. 1 marking identifies the included W196 release. This guide does not assign a driver, a race victory or an exact historical transport occasion that the offer does not establish.

Loaded or side-by-side display?

A loaded arrangement emphasizes the pairing as a transport scene. A side-by-side arrangement makes more of each vehicle visible and can be preferable when you want to see the race car's outline independently.

Use the supplied placement guidance and gallery rather than forcing the model into a position. Check whether any small retaining or packing pieces are part of transport protection or the intended display before removing them.

Understand the two length measurements

The truck is listed at approximately 4 inches long and the car at approximately 2.5 inches. These are separate vehicle lengths, not a claim that the set measures 6.5 inches when the car is carried.

For a side-by-side display, plan width as well as length. For a loaded arrangement, check the height of the complete pair. The catalog's two length figures do not supply an exact maximum set height or case footprint.

Can you use a different car as the load?

Shared 1:64 labeling is not enough to guarantee fit. Another car can have a different width, wheelbase, ride height or projecting parts, so the load area and actual model dimensions would need checking.

This package already gives you a named pairing. It is the more predictable choice when the included W196 is the car you want to display, rather than buying the set solely for an unverified swap.

Do not mix up compact scales

The Norev Ford GT40 MkII 270578 is a 1:43 model, not a same-scale alternative load. Its approximate 3.875-inch length should not be compared with the truck's overall 4-inch length as proof it fits on the bed.

Our Norev scale guide separates model ratios from actual dimensions and explains why both matter.

Who should choose this set?

It suits a collector who likes Mercedes transport subjects or wants two coordinated miniatures without the footprint of large-scale models. A buyer wanting a single big centerpiece should compare the scale before ordering.

Check item 311000, the current price and package contents. The offer supplies the listed vehicles; no clear showcase, additional load or surrounding scenery is promised here.
