D157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Grey/green. Spun wheel issue. Very, very near mint/in SCARCE SPUN WHEEL pictured box. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A desirable Dinky car with a sleek grey-green finish, rare with shining spun wheels, shiny baseplate (coupe of small scratches). Outstanding fresh condition throughout. As-new original tyres run well.
One mere dot to the paint finish.
The scarce card box with spun wheel version pictured is the correct late pale yellow colour and has the correct colour spot at the end flaps. Complete and crisp, with a handling grubbiness in places. Little end flap crease.
An unusual variation – hard to find in any condition.
