C230
Corgi 230 Mercedes-Benz 220SE. Near mint plus/boxed. Cream. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
First issue in cream with a red interior, issued between 1962-67. Very similar to Corgi 253 – but unlike 253, note that this issue (correctly) has no quarterlight window.
Spare wheel stowed in the boot.
Intact bonnet emblem (little mark on the tip) and suspension on shaped spun wheels. Few little marks to this most unforgiving of paint finishes.
The box is clean and bright. Minor handling wear and note the area of surface loss at an end flap.
