Notes
One of the rarest French Dinky models, this Taunus is finished in darkest green and white with unrubbed ‘POLIZEI’ lettering in cream on both doors and boot. Blue light on the roof. Shiny concave wheels and fine tread original tyres have no flat spots.
Rarely comes up for sale.
Just the occasional little mark. Shiny base has tiny marks. Period tax disc has been added (easily removed if wished).
Correctly presented in the deep yellow picture box with German print. Strongly-coloured, clean and complete. Little storage crease/crumple on a non-picture side. Period pencilled shopkeeper’s price.
Extremely scarce – and in this condition a real find!
