D157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce issue in cerise and turquoise in EARLY 'BLUE-SPOT' BOX. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
A striking Jaguar car which is a sought-after variation finished in cerise and turquoise with cerise, cast wheels.
Fine lustre.

Obviously barely handled, this model has a couple of minor body line detail rubs and note the two curious dots of cream paint at a roof edge. Little marking at rear bumper over-riders. Shiny base. Smooth original tyres run well.
This is a hard to find* early box, with an original all blue colour spot* at the end flaps. Later, these boxes would have an ‘in the print’ two-colour spot. The box is vividly-coloured, complete with all end flaps. Edge tear. Light handling wear besides.
