Notes
Issued between 1962-65 in a variety of colour finishes, this salmon pink finish being the most difficult to find. After 1965, this car became the Saint’s Volvo (renumbered Corgi 258).
This example is in virtually mint condition with just one little rub mark on the roof, couple of very little marks at bumpers. Bright lemon interior and original silver detailing at the raised bodylines and bumpers. Suspension on shiny shaped spun hubs.


The box is complete and clean with all end flaps intact. Small crease on one face and a little crumple at an end flap. Very minor wear besides. No tears. Shopkeeper’s penned price at an end flap.
Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
