Corgi 416S Land-Rover 'TOURING SECOURS' (T.S.). Very near mint/boxed. Exceptionally scarce Belgian version of the RAC Land-Rover with suspension. With 'TOURING SECOURS" label on the box. Originally from The MBU Corgi Collection, now part of The Mayfair Collection.
Notes
Rare to come to the market place. This is an exceptionally scarce Belgian issue. A later issue Land Rover’ finished in brilliant yellow, with shiny *shaped spun wheels with suspension. Correct that this later issue has no roof sign (complete ‘RADIO’ lettering on the bonnet). Intact ‘TS’ logo on both doors (tiny stray portion of additional transfer above one logo). Original aerial. Grey painted base. Blue-grey plastic textured canopy. Solid (non-pierced) bumper. Bright red interior.*
Shiny flat spun wheels and fine original tyres.
Little chip at the back of the ribbed roof. Couple of tiny marks besides.
The pictorial box is complete and brightly-coloured, with original ‘TOURING SECOURS’ label! Usual age/handling wear, and a little thumb tear at a small end flap seam. Light red pencil stroke at an end flap.
