C205
Corgi 205 Riley Pathfinder Saloon. Very near mint/boxed. Bright red version, flat spun wheels. Outstanding early box! With promotional colour booklet. Scarce. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1956-62 in either red or blue finish – this particular example is a shining bright red colour, with flat spun hubs and window glazing. A really lovely classic car – in original condition. Outstanding original lustrous finish!
Two little chips at a wheel arch edge and a couple of faint rubs at side raised bodylines. Still an outstanding example! Fine original silver detailing at the radiator, bumpers and lights.
The early blue picture box is as nice as you can find; crisp, with excellent vivid colours and barely any handling wear at all. Extremely difficult to find these early Corgi boxes so fresh!
Complete with the colour booklet too.
