475 - Citroen Safari Corgi Ski Club


€47,95

Originally released in an Olympic Winter Sports livery in 1964, Corgi re-issued the model the following year, replacing the Olympic symbol on the bonnet with a Corgi Ski Club decal. Otherwise, the tooling was identical, also retaining the earlier model’s miniature skiing figure, plus a roofrack with detachable skis and poles.

Out of the box, the figure (which clipped onto the skis) was placed inside the Citroën, accessed via an opening tailgate. The model also featured a tilting rear seat mechanism, operated via a thumb wheel on the base. The tooling originated from Corgi 436, an African safari themed model from 1963. A final version was released as Corgi 499, which revived the Winter Olympic theme for 1968’s event at Grenoble.
