419 - Ford Zephyr Police Motorway Patrol Car


£31.99

Conjuring up the spirit of the popular TV show Z-Cars, this typically early-60s Corgi was produced until 1965. Interestingly, Ford didn’t actually make an estate version of the Zephyr, the model being based on an Abbott of Farnham bespoke conversion.

Launched in 1960, the model was also available in the Netherlands – the bonnet sticker replaced with one that read either ‘Politie’ or ‘Rijks Polite’. Detailing was excellent, with an aerial, blue emergency light, grille-mounted bell and loudspeaker, plus a red interior complete with moulded recovery tools. In 1962, the tooling was used again to produce a non- police estate (Corgi 424) in a rather fetching two-tone blue colour scheme.

Childhood favourite.

This is a great Corgi model. I even remember the day I bought it. The CMC model is as I remember the original apart from the box being a little more glossy. The paint finish is superb as always and the model sits nicely on its suspension. This tooling is now a great opportunity for the standard estate to be modelled. Another excellent model from the club. Keep them coming.
