Notes
Issued between 1965-68, this Citroen model has a creamy-white finish, light brown dashboard and rear seats, pale green front seats. With skier, red roof-rack, four red skis and four poles. Complete, clean and vivid bonnet transfer. Shaped spun wheels and smooth-running original tyres.
Occasional mere dot to the finish and a stray flick of factory silver near a door handle.
Model feature works well; i.e. the rear seats can be laid flat by operating the mechanism on the baseplate. Spring suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels.
The box is complete and bright, on crisp, fresh card. Note the penned scribble on one non-picture side.
