FD516
French Dinky 516 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL. Very near mint/boxed (wear). From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
Attractive metallic silver issue with a detachable cream (intact) hard top, opening bonnet and boot. Detailed deep green engine, cream interior. Concave wheels.
The cream roof has a couple of extra touches of cream paint, and a little casting roughness on the bonnet.
The colourfully illustrated card box is rather worn now with some creasing and a couple of flecks of surface removal at an end flap.
