Title: Corgi & Dinky toys
Post by: Rangie on 31 March 2022, 17:17:19
Been auctioning a lot of my toy car collection as Grandsons are not  interested in them at all , quite amazing what people will pay for them going to use the money for a trip to the Caribbean if travel looks settled next year, best sale so far the Saints Volvo P1800 cost me 5/6d (27.5pence) sold for £380 mint & boxed.

Pretty sure I had one as a kid but no idea what happened to it. :-\ :-\ :-\

I certainly had The Man from U.N.C.L.E  Oldsmobile though, complete with 'Waverly ring' :y

I had a James Bond Aston Martin with the pop up bullet screen, ejector seat etc, sadly it mysteriously dissapeared years ago.

If you tapped the rear screen the headlights would flash on and off. :y
