Notes
Issued between 1954-60, this model has a shining deep cream finish with cream hubs, closed in rear wheel spats, treaded tyres and red tail lights, ‘Vanguard’ cast on the underside of the roof. Stunning, all-original condition. This model presents well with its classic lines:
Shiny base (minor ‘spidering’), and well-shaped original tyres.

Negligible body-line rub or two and a very small casting mark on the roof.
The box is extremely fresh, clean and crisp with vivid colours on barely handled card. Correct colour spot. A rare find in this condition:
A sought-after item.
