D230
Dinky 230 Talbot Lago. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce version with yellow plastic wheels. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
A sought-after classic Dinky racing car – rare with yellow plastic wheels! Fresh shining mid-blue finish, silver trim and bright baseplate. Well-shaped, original grey tyres.
Racing numbers are absolutely fine with none of the rubbing/wear that so often occurs.
Usual little rub at the rear tip and a couple of negligible dots besides.
The correct late lighter yellow picture box is bright, complete and clean.
Minor handling wear and the tiniest start of an end flap tear.
