Notes
Issued between 1954-59 in various colour finishes, and this particular version is not an easy find! This Austin Devon model has a shining deep-green and at least a couple of shades darker than suede green, with fawn wheels. Presents well with a pleasing lustre and fine original silver trim. Smooth-running, as-new original tyres. Bright baseplate (minor ‘spidering’) with large print and ‘DEVON’ cast into the underside of the roof.
Very close to mint condition – with just a light surface mark on the bonnet and minute roof marking (if you peer extra closely under strong light).
The strongly-coloured box is complete and clean with no tears. Correct colour spot. Only the most minor handling wear and a little pencilled number on the top surface. Crisp feel. No graffiti.
