Notes
An exciting example of the Saint’s Volvo with the bonnet transfer reversed!
We surmise part of a very small production run. Finished in white with a deep red interior, shaped spun wheels with suspension and well-shaped original tyres.
A very close to mint model with a notably complete transfer.
A little mark to the paint at roof front edge and a few tiny marks (probably factory assembly) at jewelled headlight rims.
A truly exceptional item – with the reversed bonnet logo.
The standard blue and yellow picture box is complete and bright, with quite a crisp feel. Few light stains on one face. Light wear.
An astonishing rarity from this exceptional Corgi collection.
