D157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Near mint/boxed. Scarce cream version, and rare with CREAM WHEELS. First we have handled! From the Reference Collection.
Notes
A scarce colour issue – this Dinky Jaguar has a shining cream finish with deeper cream wheels.
Bright base and smooth original tyres run well.
This Jaguar model is a difficult find in cream but with deeper cream wheels – a very rare item! Usually found with fawn wheels (version also present in this collection).
A few small light surface scratches to the roof and the occasional tiny dot to the paint finish besides. Minute scrutiny reveals a thin sweep of a lighter shade of paint on the inside edge of one wing as well as a dab on the wing too.
The correct card box is complete and has a cream colour spot at the end flaps. Some age grubbiness but the card feels crisp and there are no tears. Pen marking around one of the Dinky numbers.
An exceptionally scarce Dinky Jaguar variation.
