C253
Corgi 253 Mercedes Benz 220 SE Coupe. Very near mint/boxed. Metallic maroon. Complete with both suitcases. From the Italian collection.
Notes
Issued between 1964-68, the car has a deep metallic maroon finish and sleek lines.
Intact emblem on the bonnet and a fine lustre. Just a few little marks that you have to hunt for, away from mint . Bright shaped spun wheels with suspension, and lots of the attention to detail that made Corgi cars so popular. Two suitcases in the boot as well as a spare wheel (so often lost!).
The box is is complete, brightly-coloured, with quite a crisp feel to the card. Minor handling wear & light grubbiness in places.
