224 - Bentley Continental Sports Saloon Black and Silver


£33.99

Introduced into the Corgi range in 1961, Corgi 224 was available in two colour variations – in either black/ silver or two-tone green. It was given Corgi’s famed jewelled lights, an opening boot that housed a spare wheel, as well as ‘Glidamatic’ suspension. However, it was its fingertip steering that stole the show – an innovative feature that allowed the model to be turned smoothly to the left or right.

With silver plated bumpers and grille, plus Bentley’s iconic ‘Flying B’ mascot sitting proudly on the bonnet, Corgi certainly pulled out all the stops to impress. Despite healthy sales of over 960,000, production stopped in 1965 with rumours that Corgi 224 was too expensive to continue to be produced. It nevertheless remains one of the finest and fully- featured Corgi Toys of all time!

The Black and the green one.

When the Bentley was first on sale, in the sixties i started working , i did not smoke and did not drink alcohol : i bough every week an Corgi or Dinkie. I bought the green Bentley for its bright colour. Ik keep all the models and also the boxes.
And i do like the Black one.

Ein tolles Modell in sehr guter Qualität und Optik. Entspricht genau dem Original. Nur der Preis incl. Versand ist mit fast 50 € sehr hoch! Wenn die Modelle bei 30-35 € liegen würden, würde ich einige mehr kaufen.
