Re-numbered from 40J in 1954, this Austin Somerset Saloon Dinky model has a pleasing pale blue finish with cream ridged wheels and a bright baseplate (minor ‘spidering’).
Scarce variation.
Fine original silver detailing at radiator, bumpers and headlights.
ON all original condition. Note the factory ‘pooling’ of paint low down in places at the sides (as-made). A flat spot to tyres.
The box is complete and crisp with very minor wear. Correct colour spot.
