Notes
A beautiful Mercedes model in very close to perfect condition with a light blue finish. An especially difficult version to find – with suspension on flat spun wheels. Pale grey original tyres, too, and a plastic steering wheel. Later this model in white, with black tyres, shaped spun wheels with suspension would be released as a 303S model).
Just the occasional mere dot away from mint.
The blue and yellow picture box is complete and bright with a crisp feel. Very light wear only.
An extremely difficult find.
