Oxford Diecast Mercedes Whitby Mondial Ice Cream Van Tonibell (1:76)

Mercedes Whitby Mondial Ice Cream Van Tonibell You’ve been treated to this exact same model in 1:43 scale; this issue reveals it joining the 1:148 series too; and now it appears again, especially for 1:76 scale ice cream van followers. It is such a delightful and eye-catching vehicle which is as irresistible as the ice cream!  The frothy bright pink body with black trim is just covered with a mass of pastel shades including the signature Tonibell cow, with her famous bell collar, as she appears on all sides of the van.  Ice cream cones top the front of the roof and the side hatch promotes all the delicious varieties on offer. The Whitby Company set up business in 1962 and acquired the Morrison Industries Electrofreeze company in 1989, to be morphed into Whitby Morrison Mondial. Their worldwide market in ice cream vans spans over 50 countries, all from their Cheshire base, which is still family owned. The sight and sound of an ice cream van always heralds the UK summer and the latest introduction is a sure sign of the season to come! - OO/1:76 Scale

Corgi Jaguar XJ6 Series 1, Warwick Grey

Jaguar XJ6 Series 1, Warwick Grey  Includes: - Detailed diecast model - Jaguar badges and XJ6 branding - Front, headlight and grill detailing - Fine Alloy wheels - Interior detail - Display stand  - Collectors Card - 1:43 Scale Vehicle information: The majority of 4.2-litre Series 1 Jaguar XJ6s produced were fitted with an automatic gearbox, but the example modelled utilizes the rarer manual overdrive (MOD) gearbox and came off Jaguar's assembly line at Browns Lane, Coventry, on May 17th, 1972. The first listed owner was Jaguar's Personal Export Division.  They registered the car in Coventry purely so it could be officially exported to the largest of the Canary Islands, Tenerife, where the British gentleman who had ordered it, Mr I. E. Lloyd, was then based. Mr Lloyd specified Sundym glass to make the car more comfortable in the warm climate and regularly drove it back to the UK for servicing.  Mr Lloyd evidently enjoyed the car as he covered 50,000 miles in it and kept it until the late 1980s, by which time he'd moved to the Isle of Man. It was imported into the UK in 2016 and then purchased by well-known Jaguar collector, Mike Birtwistle, who was impressed by its rust-free condition and original red interior.  Mike mechanically recommissioned it, had the sun-bleached paint resprayed and used it for several Jaguar Enthusiast Club events before selling it to a fellow JEC member, West Midlands-based motoring TV producer and journalist, John Lakey, in September 2017. John was delighted as he'd been looking for a 4.2-litre MOD Series 1 in these colours for years and regularly writes about the car in Classic Car Weekly.
