Notes
This Triumph 1800 Saloon model marks the transition from the older numbering of 40B to the new numbering 151 in 1954. This is a rare version in French Blue with fawn ridged wheels, early style baseplate with small lettering.
A few little light rubbing at some raised body lines and a couple of very minor marks. Still a rich lustre to the all original paint finish. Base is untarnished. Smooth tyres are well-shaped.
The dual-numbered box is brightly-coloured and complete with quite a crisp feel to the card. Correct colour spot. Light age/handling wear. Period price label on an end flap.
