Notes
This Citroen 2 CV model was issued between 1976-78. It has a vibrant orange finish with a matching roof, shiny concave wheels and an ivory interior. Jewelled headlights oblong-shaped), silver trim. Supple and as-new original ’Dunlop tyres, although note one has a small nick. Black base.
A little paint loss at the front numberplate area. Occasional little mark besides.
The bright and fresh-looking card box has resistant end flaps (showing that it has been opened rarely). Early end flap style box correct without a serrated tab. One of the ‘Made in Spain’ French Dinky models (stamped on base and printed on the box). Tiniest wear only. Period shop label. Not an easy variation to find.
