Notes
A fine and gleaming early example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, later re-numbered to 582. Such a lustrous finish throughout, with complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides (couple of letters have minor factory ‘smudges’). Very bright winding handle,axle ends and baseplate. Spare wheel stowed behind the cab. Looks like old shop stock; such a beautiful and vibrant lustre:



Couple of negligible, probably as-made marks if you peer closely enough with a magnifying glass! The pictorial box is very clean and bright with all end flaps intact. No graffiti. Strong colours. A little rubbing on box underside.
