Notes
A striking Rover Saloon! With a wonderfully vibrant intense violet blue and rich cream finish, this example was made between 1956-59.
Note that this example has the large print and 156 on the shiny baseplate.
In all original condition, with just the occasional very small mark/rub. Little split to one of the tyres but it still runs well.
The pictorial box has an early deep blue colour spot at end flaps. Light wear only
A handsome model.
