Notes
First issued during 1965, this Renault Estafette Campervan is a delightful model from the French Dinky factory! Finished in sky blue with a cream plastic moulded roof with shining silver trim, bright red interior, jewelled lights. Open the delicate hinged rear doors and peek inside. Detailed cream interior, complete with ‘jazzy’ flowered seating!
In close to perfect condition, this model has a small faint scratch or two on the side sliding door, and a a few curious small flicks of lighter blue paint head-on.
The detailed picture box continues the nostalgic theme with an idyllic holiday scene portrayed. Bright colours and this example comes complete with the little tear-iff serrated tag, Some age/handling wear, including an end flap seam tear and a small area of surface loss at an end flap. Old tape residue at this end flap. No graffiti.
A charming French Dinky model – and not an easy find!
