Notes
This popular Set was made between 1965-68, and comprises Corgi 245 Buick, red boat trailer, a Dolphin 4 Berth Cabin Cruiser with Captain figure and a water skier. This particular set is in close to mint-very close to mint authentic condition.
i) Corgi 245 Buick Riviera in light blue with a bright red detailed interior. Suspension on cast detailed wheels. Intact tow hook. Original tyres run well. Pleasing sheen to the original paint finish. Painstaking searching will find the occasional little mark/rub.
ii) Trailer is in near mint plus condition. All original paint finish has a few tiny marks.
iii) Corgi 104  Dolphin Cabin Cruiser is in fresh, bright and clean condition. Complete with Captain and intact outboard motor and propellor. Little light stain on the paper label. 
This tows the original skier on the original plastic water scene attachment. 
Complete.
Colourful card stand is very crisp and fresh with vivid colours. 
Both pull-out tabs are present and tear-free. Remains of the old sellotape on the underside. Little dip in the card caused by the weight of the models (minor).
The *attractive outer box * has bright colours on clean card. Minor handling wear and a little end flap tear.
Included is the often missing original Instruction Leaflet too.
This is a very attractive Corgi item that would display well.
