 DESCRIPTION

Siku toy vehicles are German miniatures that feature excellent detail and fine craftsmanship. The first diecast, small-scale cars were produced in 1963. Number 230 in the series is a 1963 Volkswagen 1200. This is one of the earliest diecast Siku models and represents a unique VW of this scale as it is the only one with engine detail. This car represents the early 'regular-wheel' Siku diecast. The engine compartment opens and gem-like headlights make this a true delight for the collector.
