D161
Dinky 161 Austin Somerset Saloon. Scarce red and yellow version. Near mint/boxed. From a private collection of Dinky and Corgi models, mostly purchased during the early 1980's at U.K. auction houses.
Notes
Now here’s a rare and sought-after variation! This two-tone red and yellow classic Dinky car was issued between 1956-59.
Eye-catching and in all original condition.
A desirable car which presents very well with a lustrous finish. One little chip on the roof and a smaller mark on a front wing. Smooth original tyres run well.
The box is bright and complete with no tears or repairs. Correct colour spot. Period pencilled price at an end flap.
