This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in July 2006 for £34 in the following condition:
This beautiful and very hard to find Dinky model is in stunning mint perfect condition, I can't find a mark on it anywhere, it's an absolute beauty, and it comes in its equally superb original picture card box which has one reattached (from inside) inner tuck-in and some toy shop price labels on one end flap, but overall is very crisp, clean, bright, and 100 per cent complete - very nice indeed!
A marvellous example of one of Dinky's rarely offered saloon car models, not often offered in this fantastic condition, and a great addition to any collection!
