Triumph Herald 13/60 Convertible Removable Roof 1:43 Corgi Vanguard Model
Description
Most initially expected the Herald to be phased out after Triumph's new front-wheel-drive 1300 saloon was launched in 1965 but it continued to sell well partly because it was cheaper and partly because it had built up a loyal following Thus Triumph gave it a facelift in 1967 and created the 1360 (1300cc engine 60bhp) using an over-bored version of the previous 1147cc 1250 engine Its styling was also substantially but very economically updated by use of the Vitesse bonnet-pressing with single instead of twin headlights In this form the saloon remained in production until replaced by the Toledo in 1970 However the last convertible 1360s as modelled here were built in September 1971 Dimensions 315 x 284 x 9Scale 143Limited Edition YesLimited Edition Size 1000Length 89mmAge Suitability 14
