- the reach and angle indicators on the boom, witch are not on the European models.

Like it's European brother the V518 is manufactured in China by Clover and is also scaled down to 1/25.

It featured all wheel steering, telescoping and lifting boom.

The V518 also came with 2 attachments: a pallet fork and bucket, witch could easily be changed.

The model came in a new style box, just like it's younger European brother.
