This item is no longer for sale, price for reference only.
Notes
The scarce version of the more familiar English Dinky 150. Actually, this French issue was made using the English casting, although assembled in France and of course what distinguishes it from its more common cousin is the baseplate stamp ‘Assemble en France’.
Gleaming two tone grey finish with bright chromed bumpers. Complete bonnet emblem too.
Such a fine example!
Bright baseplate. Shiny concave wheels and as-new treaded tyres.
Near-microscopic mark or two if you really want to fault it. Little marking on the base.
The plain yellow card box is complete and crisp. Minor edge rubbing and a tiny tear. Light crease. Period pencilled price.
