Make

Range/Operator

DAF Lorry - Van Gend & Loos

Model Number

36

Condition

Vintage Good - This item has clearly been looked after. No corrosion, wheels and axles all good

As pictured.  Made in Holland. Internet says 1/50 Scale. This is a heavy item, close to 1kg. Lion Car started in 1946 and I would estimate this dating from the 1950's. It is a beautiful vintage collectors item. Rear doors have a catch to open and close them. Trailer stand present and working.

Regarding price

Long time buyers may have noticed a sharp increase in item prices. For the sakes of transparency, let me explain:

I obtain most of my goods from overseas, Europe mostly. Due to the inexorable devaluation of the rand, goods whose price has remained relatively static overseas have near doubled in terms of cost to land here. This is not just a direct per item cost, but includes postage (which has greatly increased in cost), customs and even bank charges. All are affected as they get charge on a rand value. i.e. Because the model cost me more in rand terms, I get charged more in terms of customs.

My request is that people please refrain from trying to contact me to arrange private or bulk deals and so forth. This is contra the platforms rules and also not economically viable for me.
