Notes
A fine gleaming example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, made between 1956-59 under this re-numbering. Such a lustrous finish throughout, with complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides and a very bright winding handle. This truck has rarely seen the light of day. Late issue with concave wheels, black plastic tow hook.
A difficult find.
In very close to mint condition with a couple of tiny marks to the paint finish.
The pictorial box is complete, clean and bright. Crisp. Minor age wear including a tiny tear.
One of our favourite French Dinky models!
