D255
Dinky 255 Mersey Tunnel Police Van. Near mint/boxed (wear) - a more difficult find. From the Renos Louka Collection.
Notes
This popular Land-Rover model was made between 1955-61.
Gloss red finish with no sunfading. ‘Mersey Tunnel’ lettering is complete on both sides as are the ‘Police’ labels with a black background on the cab roof.
Minor ‘spidering on the base’ and one of the original tyres has a couple of little flat spots.
Few minor dots at the reverse edge of the roof. Couple of very minor marks besides.
The harder to find box is complete and brightly- coloured, if a touch worn now.
