Corgi 210
Corgi 210 Citroen DS 19. Near mint/boxed. Lemon with a red roof. Scarce version WITHOUT the mechanical bulge on the base. From 'The Smith Collection' - one owner from new models.
Notes
The first we have offered for sale in ages!
This version has a fresh lemon and red finish with flat spun wheels. In close to mint condition with marking mostly confined to the front. Couple of factory touch-ins at the back of the roof.
Looking over our records of previous models we have sold, it would appear that most 210 models have the mechanical bulge on the base. This is the first example in lemon and red that we have offered without this ‘bulge’ for the mechanical version.
Originally Corgi intended to issue a mechanical version (hence the bulge) but this was never issued.
The powder blue box is bright, with a crisp feel Light stain and wear. Remains of a shopkeeper’s price label at an end flap. Early Corgi Club Membership Form.
