Notes
These Wiking models are quite rare. They are in 1:40 scale and were exclusively made for Volkswagen in the 50s and 60s of the last century. They were give-aways for new car buyers (to please their little boys we assume). It is interesting to know that Wiking made these cars in the same colours the originals were, also they were pure promotional items for VW only and never available in the shops.
Those without windows are extremely rare and achieve high prices when available.
From a private collection in Croatia. The owner tells us:
“My late father got all of these from a closing dealership and most of them are in original packaging with all the bits accounted for”.
This VW Ambulance model has a cream finish, seating, black steering wheel, window glazing (obscured glazing at the sides).
High quality plastic construction model. 1:40 scale. Mint condition.
Crisp, bright pictorial box is a scarce version with model pictured and comic illustrations to two sides. Small repaired tear at an end flap.
