D272
Dinky 272 Police Accident Unit. Very, very near mint/boxed (wear to bubble top). With accessories. From a most knowledgeable and enthusiastic collector in South London.
Notes
Issued between 1975-78.
Very close to pristine condition on this Police Ford Transit Van. Original crisp white finish with perfect fluorescent orange "POLICE’ strip at the sides. Complete ‘POLICE’ labels on the roof sign. Jewelled headlights. ‘N’ registration number plate. Sliding door, opening rear hatch. Searchlight on the roof. Detailed cast wheels.

With both signs and the little traffic cones are still wrapped in clear plastic (original).
Few negligible dots to the paint finish.
Bright card base has tiny wear only. Bubble top still feels pliant although do note it is a little ‘darkened’ now and has a chunk missing low down on one side.
