Notes
Issued between 1962-65 in a variety of colour finishes. After 1965, this car became the Saint’s Volvo (renumbered Corgi 258).
This example is in all original, very close to mint condition with a deep salmon pink finish, bright lemon interior and original silver detailing at the raised body lines and bumpers. Suspension on shiny shaped spun hubs and the supple original tyres are well-shaped.
Displays beautifully!
Couple of tiny bumper rubs and a dot to the paint finish.
The box is complete and strongly-coloured. All end flaps are intact. A little age/handling wear.
