D287
Dinky 287 Ford Transit Van 'Police Accident Unit'. With packing ring and all accessories. Unopened original bag containing the bollards. Very near mint/boxed (puncture). Early issue.
Notes
The first we have seen in ages!
This Ford Transit Van is in all original, very fine condition with a clean and fresh deep orange and white finish, with intact delicate roof accessories and complete ‘POLICE ACCIDENT UNIT’ labels on both sides. Silver trim, jewelled headlights, complete number plates front and rear, sliding doors, police driver figure, unblemished window glazing. Open the rear doors and you will find stowed the two plastic ‘POLICE’ signs along with the little clear original bag containing the 4 bollards. Hard to find complete with all the little accessories!
This Ford Transit Van is in very close to mint condition. One little roof corner edge mark and a couple of negligible dots/tiny rub besides.
Complete with the little card packing ring for the roof. The early issue (and nicest!) end flap box is very clean, fresh and bright. Often found heavily damaged since the card is flimsy in comparison to the heavy weight of the model with protruding parts.
This example has a puncture on one non-picture face and a little tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap. Better than most we have seen!
