Oxford Diecast 76LR2S004 Land Rover Series II SWB Post Office Telephones (Yellow)

00 Gauge

Post Office Telephones adopted the new bright yellow ‘safety’ colour in 1968, the year of the G registration plate, and all newly painted vehicles appeared in this official colour scheme with grey-green printing from that date onwards.  Our Post Office Telephones Land Rover is registered SYF 4F from 1967/68 and comes with the signature GPO bronze green interior. These factors confirm that in real life, this vehicle had been repainted to fit in with the new corporate identity.  The printing on the doors includes the Telephone Manager details and these too would be phased out from 1973 onwards.
