D157
Dinky 157 Jaguar XK120 Coupe. Very, very near mint/boxed. Red version. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
This desirable Dinky Jaguar model car has a gleaming vivid red finish and a bright baseplate. This car looks as if it has barely seen the light of day.
Difficult to fault. None of the usual rubbing on the roof – and the colours are so vibrant throughout! Tiny couple of side body line rubs and a dot above the front bumper (probably as-made). Couple of very small raised casting marks on the roof (being extra fussy here).
The picture box is complete and has the correct colour spot. Little area of surface removal on a non-picture side and a period price label on the box underside (Grand Passage). Minor wear besides.
A highly desirable Dinky item.
