FD551
French Dinky 551 Ford Taunus 17M Police Car. Very near mint/boxed. Very scarce German export model from The Berkshire Collection.
Notes
One of the rarest French Dinky models, this Taunus is finished in darkest green and white with ‘POLIZEI’ lettering in cream on both doors and boot. Blue light on the roof. Rarely comes up for sale.
One barley visible dot on the bonnet, if you want to fault it, and small factory assembly scratch on the inside of the windscreen.
Correctly presented in the deep yellow picture box with German print. Strongly-coloured, clean and complete. Very light age wear only. Pencilled shopkeeper’s price at an end flap.
Extremely scarce – and in this condition a real find!
