Notes
Now here’s a rare and sought-after variation! This gleaming bright jewel of a car has a two-tone red and yellow finish. Issued between 1956-59, issued toward the end of the production run with treaded tyres with ‘M’ stamped, tail light detail and silvered ‘number plate’. Wonderfully vivid lustre and a shining silver trim.
A desirable car in very close to mint condition. A little marking to the rear number plate finish and the occasional small mark besides.
The picture box is bright and complete, with the correct two-colour spot at the end flaps. Light wear and a period pencilled price.
Notoriously difficult to get in good condition!
