Notes
Rare to come to the market place and one of the best QDT have ever offered for sale.
This is an exceptionally scarce Belgian issue – and an especially welcome sight is the original ‘TOURING SECOURS’ label on the box*!
An early issue Land Rover finished in brilliant yellow, with shiny flat spun wheels. Roof sign has complete ‘RADIO’ lettering and intact ‘TS’ lettering on both sides of the tin tilt. Original aerial. Tinplate base is shiny. Front bumper on struts. Correct with no interior.
Shiny flat spun wheels and fine original tyres.
Virtually mint condition – a remarkable find.
In all original state.
Stray drips of factory silver on the underside of the front bumper.
It is often the case that a high profile model such as this would be found with subtle (or not) retouches – pleased to say this example is in all original condition.
The pictorial box is crisp and bright with original* ‘TOURING SECOURS’ label*. Very light wear and a small area of surface loss on one side.
A premium piece for the Corgi specialist.
