C48 Classic Gentleman Driver – Door Opening Pose with Map, Unpainted

Add storytelling and character to your classic motoring scenes with the C48 Classic Gentleman Driver, captured in a natural pose opening a car door while holding a map or notebook.

Inspired by mid-20th century touring and rallying, this figure reflects the era when drivers relied on paper maps, handwritten notes, and personal navigation rather than modern systems. Whether arriving at a rally stage, preparing for a countryside drive, or checking directions during a journey, this pose brings a strong sense of narrative to your model.

Dressed in period overalls, flat cap, and sturdy boots, the figure represents the practical yet refined style of classic drivers from the 1950s through to the 1970s. The extended arm position makes it ideal for interacting with a vehicle—perfect for placing beside an open door or just stepping out of a car.

Perfect for use with:

• 1/10 scale RC classic and vintage cars

• 1/18 and 1/43 diecast models

• Scalextric and slot car layouts

• Classic rally scenes, touring setups, and paddock dioramas

Pairs well with passenger figures like C43 and mechanics such as C47 to create a complete and engaging scene.

Supplied as an unpainted scale model figure, allowing full customisation with period clothing colours, subtle weathering, and personalised details.

The C48 Classic Gentleman Driver adds life, interaction, and realism to any classic car display, perfectly capturing the slower, more considered pace of historic motoring.
