Corgi 242
Corgi 242 Ghia-Fiat 'Jolly'. Very near mint/boxed. So scarce. From The Lake District Corgi Collection.
Notes
A delightful item from Corgi finished in deep yellow with a red and silver interior, bright silver chrome, two suitably-attired beach lovers, and the Corgi dog reposing on the back seat!
This model is very close to perfect with a pleasing, all original yellow finish. A few very light rubs on the chrome caused by box contact (often found with barely any chrome at all or even worse ‘re-finished’ in silver!).
Complete picture box has red pen mark on both large end flaps and minor handling wear besides.
Issued 1965-66.
