Notes
Issued between 1962-69, as part of the Dinky range of TV commercial vehicles. This model is in very fine, all original condition, complete with the often missing revolving aerial dish. Note this is the version with a triangular slot for the aerial. Complete transfers on both sides and notably complete lettering head-on (often found with much rubbing to the letters). Lustrous original finish including the silver trim.
In virtually mint condition!
Note that this version has (most unusually) the lemon windows details (usually off-white).
Shiny base and fine well-shaped tyres.
The picture box is brightly-coloured and intact. Very minor wear only.
