VANGUARDS - Triumph Herald Convertible, Damson (and dust)


Oops apologies for the dust, is this not a brilliant model, the Herald was for Triumph, what the Mini was for Austin, but not quite in the same sales league, but in its 12 year life span (1959-1971) they sold in excess of half a million units, and even in it's final year, it was still selling very strongly, here is the MK II, and personally i prefer this to the original, Vanguards has achieved a near to realistic model as can be with this one.

VA07400 was the launch model for the Herald, and they chose Damson as the colour, and a great choice it was too, the working suspension and jewelled headlights as well as a better interior, as it is a convertible, really makes this stand out, as an asside, they could have bowed the wheels a little just to make it more realistic... LOL..
