Notes
Distinctly different from the two-tone green issue, this Simca 9 Aronde has a light grey finish with a deep green roof. Shiny convex wheels and original white (rather grubby now) tyres. One has a little flat spot. 2nd type with a wide-stepped ?shark? grille?. Cross-hatching on the inside of the roof . Bright baseplate.
A little light rub to the exposed edge of the rear wheel arch detail and a couple of pin prick dots on the roof.
Ever so crisp, colourful and fresh card box. A real treat.
