C210
Corgi 210 Citroen DS 19. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce listed version with mechanical 'bulge' on the baseplate. From the Berkshire collection.
Notes
The model has an attractive finish in metallic green and black with shiny flat spun wheels. Baseplate has the bulge to take the flywheel motor (i.e. mechanical version), although this is a non-mechanical model. A mechanical version of this model was intended but never produced.
Just a couple of little marks on this example, and there are a few little dabs of (factory) silver near the rear bumper.
The powder blue box is fresh and bright, crisp and square. Strong colours. Lightly pencilled price at an end flap. Very little wear – hard to find these early boxes so good!
