The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia was produced between 1955 and 1974 and was known for its refined combination of German engineering and Italian design. The car was based on the chassis of the Volkswagen Beetle, but the design was carried out by the Italian design firm Carrozzeria Ghia and the body was hand-built by Karmann, a German coachbuilder. The result was an elegant sports coupe and convertible that became popular for its stylish appearance and reliable engineering.
Dinky Toys released the miniature version of the Karmann Ghia under model number 24M, a faithful representation of this iconic vehicle. The Atlas model, crafted with precision and attention to detail, perfectly reflects the flowing lines and characteristic design of the original car.

The box, also in excellent condition, completes this model and makes it particularly attractive to collectors.
With its classic design and special history, this Atlas Dinky Toys No. 24M VW Karmann Ghia is a valuable object for both lovers of vintage toy models and car history. This model is a wonderful tribute to one of the most beloved sports cars of the 1950s and 1960s and is an indispensable addition to any serious collector.
