Notes

From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
A fine example in shop-fresh condition – the metallic yellow model comes in a superb, transition box which has the over-sticker, marking the change from the earlier Jaguar 4.2 issue to this 5.3 litre model.
The box has been carefully prised open for the first time to take these pictures.

This interim model does not have ‘V12’ cast into the side-opening hatch at rear, an interesting variation. Little factory mark low down on one side. Lovely example; both model and box! Rare to find complete with the little strip of perspex which props the bonnet open.
