Corgi 253
Corgi 253 Mercedes Benz 220 SE Coupe. Near mint plus/boxed. Metallic cerise. Complete with both suitcases. From The DC Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1964-68, this Mercedes model has a rich metallic cerise finish, gleaming silver trim, original tyres (very faint flat spot to one) and sleek lines.
Intact emblem on the bonnet and a fine lustre. Bright shaped spun wheels with suspension, and lots of the attention to detail that made Corgi cars so popular. Two suitcases in the boot as well as a spare wheel (so often lost!).
Little mark at a front wing and marking at bumpers.
The colourful, crisp and complete box has plenty of end flap spring. Minor age wear. Corgi Club Membership Form.
