This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in April 2006 for £87.77 in the following condition:
This beautiful and 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 - you won't find a better example than this wherever you look!
This gorgeous model comes in its original yellow lift-off lid picture card box which is showing only the slightest age wear and is very crisp, clean, strong and bright and 100 per cent complete - very nice indeed!
Also present is the original inner card packing piece which protected the nose of the coach, plus the very scarce original instructions slip for inserting the battery underneath.
All in all, this is a magnificent complete all-original example of one of Dinky’s best models from the 1960s, getting very hard to find in any condition, and a must for any serious collector!
