Volkswagen Split Screen Toblerone Van by Corgi

This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in March 2006 for £132 in the following condition:
This beautiful and hard to find model has just one or two very tiny rubs to the side raised edges, but overall very very close to mint, it’s an absolute beauty, and it comes in its superb original box, showing some light age wear and sellotape residue, but all 100 per cent complete and bright - very nice indeed!
Another of Corgi's great models from their golden 1950s and 60s period, and a wonderful addition to any collection!
