Notes
A fine unused example of the French assembled variation with French baseplate:


Not an easy model to find, especially in this close to pristine condition:



This example is in barely handled condition with only a few minor incidental marks. Looks unused. Complete with supple original green tracks, driver, and bright metal parts.
The box is in fine condition – so bright, clean and fresh, and comes complete with packing piece!

‘Meccano Controle’ stamp on the inside of the box lid.
This version is harder to find than the earlier French Dinky 561 which is the British assembled model exported to France and put into a ‘Made in France’ box.
