Corgi Toys 216 Austin A40
Austin A40 by Corgi Toys, No. 216. Near mint/boxed. Scarce red and black NON-MECHANICAL issue with flat spun wheels. From The Rickman Collection.
Price: £200.00
Notes
Issued between 1959-62, this Austin car has a vibrant original red and black finish finish, and flat spun wheels.
A rare find in red and black. When the 216M models were discontinued in 1959, some left-over painted body shells were fitted with standard 216 bases, put in standard 216 boxes and sold abroad.
A little of the usual chipping on the roof. Bright baseplate. Original tyres run well. Occasional small mark besides.
The picture box is complete and bright. Light age/handling wear includes a stain spot.
A difficult find.
