Rolls Royce Silver Dawn Maroon/Black by Oxford
Alternative version OXF43RSD002 two-tone grey
Although launched in 1949 the Silver Dawn was very much an export model to begin with and it wasn’t until 1953 that customers in the domestic market were able to take delivery. The car modelled wears a Northern Irish registration which was only issued a few years ago, so many have been re-imported. Photos of the car from recent events show that the shape of the model is pretty good and the two-tone paint finish is accurately replicated. As we’ve seen a few times with this range, the roof mounted radio aerial is massively over scale and looks more like a piece of scale broom handle, so you may wish to upgrade this (TROSP056).

About Oxford
Traditional diecast models, mostly of historic British vehicles. Overall shapes and paint finishes usually excellent. Some of the smaller detailing such as wipers can be a little heavy and wire wheels are sometimes replicated with printed acetate discs. Price point is very low, so something has to give and with a few accessories they make excellent models. Made in China for the UK.
