C258
Corgi 258 The "Saint's" Car Volvo P.1800. Very near mint/boxed. First issue with a black Saint logo figure on a cream background. Crisp box! From a small cache of models in Dunfermline, Scotland.
Notes
First issue model introduced in 1965 in white, with a bright red interior and a black “Saint” matchstick figure transfer on the bonnet. The car is in very close to mint condition. Displays superbly with a crisp white paint finish, and a complete “Saint” matchstick figure on the bonnet. Jewelled headlights, perfect suspension on shaped spun wheels, driver. As-new original tyres. All original throughout.
Little bumper over-rider marks and a light surface mark on the roof (which may be possible to clean off). Small as-made paint bubble on the boot nad another tiny one on the roof. None of the usual chipping at the side raised body lines.
The blue and yellow picture box is clean, crisp and complete. Note the small area of surface loss at an end flap where a price label has been removed at some time.
