Dinky 157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Suede green with CREAM WHEELS. A beauty! Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Inverness Collection.
Notes
A superb example – downgraded for a very minor paint blemish on one side ( second coat of paint miss – can only note this under strong light) . Cream wheels version – the ‘rarer’ shaped spun wheels version seems to come to the market place more often.
This model has a sleek grey-green finish and looks like a fine display piece. None of the usual side body line rubs or bumper chipping.
Well-shaped smooth original tyres. Base has a little ‘spidering’.
The box is crisp with vivid colours, clean and fresh. Difficult to prise open the end flaps. Correct spot at end flaps. Light storage creasing on one side,
