Oxford Diecast 76CFE006
Vauxhall Friary Estate Swan White/Lime Yellow
00 Gauge
The Friary Estate evolved from the four door Vauxhall Cresta saloon which Vauxhall (General Motors) produced between 1954 and 1972. The American car influence is clearly seen with large tail fins, lots of chrome and bright colour schemes.
The estate version was so named because it was converted by Friary of Basingstoke in Hampshire and in real life examples are very rare today. Much more attainable is Oxford's colourful 1:76 scale replica. Registered 950 MHY, its fresh exterior white and lemon paintwork is complemented by masses of chromework, whilst inside the authentic detail extends to two-tone pale green seating and tan fittings.
