This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in September 2007 for £210 in the following condition:
This beautiful and very hard to find Dinky model is in absolutely stunning virtually mint perfect condition, I can only see two or three tiny edge specks which are probably the result of the Dinky factory manufacturing process - most would call this mint, as it has obviously never been played with and carefully looked after for the last half century. I doubt you'll find a better example than this anywhere, it's an absolute beauty!

It comes in its equally superb original blue and white striped card box with the orange label, showing only light overall age wear and an original toy shop price of 8/3 written on the lid, overall very crisp and strong and all 100 per cent complete - very nice indeed!

A marvellous example of one of Dinky's many great commercial models from the 1940s and 50s, and perhaps the finest example you'll find anywhere of this highly collectable model - don't miss out!
