Dinky 182
Dinky 182 Porsche 356A Coupe. Very near mint/boxed. Rarest version in *bright red* with *scarce silver cast wheels*. Late issue box in pale lemon with same image on both sides. From The Nelson Collection.
Notes
The most difficult version to source and probably the most desirable, this Porsche model has a very bright true red (not cerise) paint finish and silver cast (not spun) wheels. In very close to mint condition, this model has a vibrant lustrous finish, bright original silver detailing, silver cast wheels and an untarnished baseplate.
Little mark on front wings and a couple of very minor raised detail marks besides.
The correct paler yellow box is complete, clean, crisp and bright – the last issue box with same image on both sides, and correct without a colour spot at the end flaps to denote colour of model. Couple of small light handling creases on an end flap. Tiniest wear.
