The big Jaguar first appeared in 1962 and you only could choose between pastel pale blue or pale green, each with a red interior. Next came a metallic cerise colour which you can find in many shades and then a whole host of colours appear for reasons I have no idea about!
There is silver, metallic silver-blue, metallic deep blue, metallic emerald and shades thereof as well as a scarce metallic turquoise.
Very hard to find, these blues and greens also may have red or yellow interiors.
This is a dark metallic blue edition and has the red interior and is in beautiful condition. It really is lovely, with good strong suspension, original tyres, nice windows, and all its jewels in place along the front.
The bonnet opens and also the boot, in which you'll have the original opening case. There should also be a second closed case which is missing at the moment. I have one in another model and may be able to include that on request but otherwise this is sold with the one opening case.
The only flaw I can detect is a tiny mark on the roof. This is certainly the best I have had and, as it is in my own collection, I am afraid it is not available cheaply.
