Notes
Original factory trial version/one of a small production run. This is the Corgi 203 Vauxhall Velox Saloon in grey. This model which was issued between 1956-61 and was most often found in red and yellow or all-lemon.
A very rare and exceptional find in any condition in grey, let alone in this virtually mint state. This car presents so well with a gleaming, glossy finish and without silver fluting on the bonnet. Flat spun wheels and a shiny tinplate base. As-new original tyres.
The early blue picture box is a fitting partner – very crisp and strongly-coloured showing minimal handling wear. With colour booklet.
One of the rarest early Corgi models.
