FD516
French Dinky 516 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL. Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Netherlands Collection.
Notes
Attractive metallic silver issue with a detachable cream hard top, opening bonnet and boot. Detailed deep green engine, cream interior. Concave wheels. Fine tread original tyres run well. Well-fitting cream roof.
The uncharitable eye may see a couple of the most minuscule dots – very tempted to call this one mint!
The colourfully illustrated card box is clean and bright. Tear- off serrated strip is present (but detached). Very minor rubbing to the box.
