Corgi 228
Corgi 228 Volvo P.1800. Scarce ORANGE-RED issue. Spun wheels. Near mint plus/boxed. From The Heart of England Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1962-65 in a variety of colour finishes.
This Volvo model has a wonderfully lustrous bright orange-red paint finish with a lemon interior and silver detailing at the raised body lines and bumpers (all original). Suspension on shiny shaped spun hubs. A more difficult find (more usually found in a deeper red).
In close to mint condition with a little roof rub (due to box contact). Hard to find a mark otherwise.
The pictorial box is complete, bright and crisp. Light age/handling wear and a small end flap seam tear.
