Notes
Issued between 1962-65 in a variety of colour finishes, this salmon pink version being the most difficult to find. After 1965, this car became the Saint’s Volvo (renumbered Corgi 258).
This example is in all original, very close to mint condition with a lemon interior and original silver detailing at the raised body lines and bumpers. Suspension on shiny shaped spun hubs and the original tyres are well-shaped.
Displays well in this distinctive colour finish.
Two or three tiny marks to the paint.
The box is complete and bright with a crisp feel. Penned cross on an end flap. Writing nearby. Light wear includes a little storage crumple. Corgi Club Membership Form.
