FD517
French Dinky 517 Renault R8. Lemon version. Very near mint/boxed.
Notes
Issued between 1962-64 in 1:43 scale. Attractively finished in a delicate lemon finish with a vivid red interior, white steering wheel. Concave wheels and original finely ridged tyres (minute flat spot to one).
Looking virtually mint, there are a few negligible marks visible to the most critical eye.
Bright baseplate has a couple of thin light scratches. Attractive lustre and no chipping at bumpers.
The box is really crisp and brightly-coloured with all end flaps intact. No graffiti. Tiny age wear only.
Very, very nice!
