C242
Corgi 242 Ghia-Fiat 'Jolly'. Near mint plus/boxed. So scarce. From 'The New European' Collection.
Notes
A delightful item from Corgi finished in deep yellow with a red and silver interior, bright silver chrome, two suitably-attired beach lovers, and the Corgi dog reposing on the back seat!
This model is close to perfect with a pleasing, all original yellow finish. A few very light rubs on the chrome caused by box contact (often found with barely any chrome at all or even worse ‘re-finished’ in silver!).
Clean and bright picture box has the tiniest of end flap tears and minor handling wear at end flaps besides. No graffiti.
Issued 1965-66.
