PLEASE wait for me to invoice you BEFORE you pay. If you're bidding from outside the UK, the postage cost depends on weight, value and destination.
The figure eBay gives can only be approximate and I don't want you to pay too much.
I can't see any sign of wear on this at all but will stick with 'very near mint' in case your eyesight is better than mine.
So, this is the Dinky 163 Bristol coupe from 1955 and, yes, it is based on a real car... the unlikely looking 450 racing coupe which competed in the Le Mans 24 hour race, powered by a 2 lite straight six.
These toys are very hard to find in such remarkable condition. This one came from a fine American collection and has the collector's record sticker on the baseplate.
Please inspect the photos carefully.
Please note, I usually post out on the Friday after the sale because I live in a rural area and prefer to make one journey when everyone has had time to pay rather than use fuel going back and forth! Thank you for your understanding.
Postal charges guide
(Some international destinations will differ - please message to get an exact figure in time before you bid):
eBay lists only two simple charge bands and overseas rates may not apply to your particular location. I will always refund you if you pay too much by mistake - but if you pay too little I will ask you for the balance before I send.
