Dinky 157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce issue in PLUM-CERISE and turquoise. From The Berkshire Collection Part 2.
Notes
A very close to mint example of this desirable Dinky car which is in all original gleaming bright condition. Wonderful original finish in this scarce shade of distinctive plum (more often found in the bright cerise and green). Shiny base (tiny tarnsihing) and well-shaped tyres with a light tread.
Obviously barely handled, this model has the occasional minute body rub at side raised body lines. Couple of tiny marks at a roof side edge.
None of the usual marking at front or rear bumpers.
Presents well.
The box is complete and bright, with the correct colour spot. Period price at an end flap and a couple of end flap edge tears. Some age/handling wear includes a tiny end flap tear.
