C253
Corgi 253 Mercedes Benz 220 SE Coupe. Metallic blue, with YELLOW interior, spun wheels. Near mint plus/boxed. With both suitcases. BLUE-PRINTED Corgi Club Membership Form. From The 'Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1964-68, the car has an attractive deep metallic blue finish, sliver trim and sleek lines. A more difficult find with a yellow interior (this colour version is more often found with a cream interior).
Grey base and original tyres (two tyre flat spots).
Intact emblem on the bonnet. Bright shaped spun wheels with suspension. Both suitcases in the boot as well as a spare wheel (so often lost!).
Few tiny dots to the paint finish and marking at bumpers.
The box is clean and vibrant, with a crisp feel to the rarely handled card. Small area of surface loss at an end flap.
Unusual blue-printed Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
