Notes
Issued between 1963-66, this model has a bright deep metallic blue finish, yellow interior, shaped spun wheels. So often these models are found with broken suspension at the rear, since it is by depressing the rear wheels that one is able to fold down the rear seats. Please note that the suspension if soft on the rear wheels.. Shiny spun wheels and as-new original tyres.
Mere dot or two to the paint finish and a very fine light scratch to the rare screen. Small area on the bonnet where the paint has bubbled ( as-made).
Little tan suitcase is included, along with the model specific leaflet:
The box is complete, bright and very crisp, with lots of end flap spring. Penned numbering at an end flap.
