![]() Diecast from the Netherlands isn't so common in the US which is all the more reason why I'm glad to have this EFSI in my collection.

I always enjoy seeing EFSI models in a collection - since they are not that common, it makes them that much more special in a collection. The Fiat/Citroen is a nice model and neat to see the minor casting differences, etc. that EFSI did on these models.

I think I see: "Avro's Top Pop Disco Shop" So now I'm trying to figure out why a Disco van would need an emergency beacon.... Wait! I've got it! It's a disco ball light.....right? |

I don't think I have ever actually tried to read it before. I got mine out, and tried. It hurts the eyes to do so, and I am using a magnifying glass, 2 of them! I am having a lot of problems with what may be "Top Pop", so I will stay with that also. But, Shop, is, I think, Show. So - "Avro's Top Pop Disco Show" |

It is a rescue vehicle for those who throw their back out doing the disco.

In my defense, I was looking at small pictures on my phone. Now that I'm on my computer, I definitely see "Show" instead of shop. That got me curious to and I found YouTube videos and other information on "Avro's TopPop Disco Show" which was a Dutch music TV show from the late 1970's and early 1980's.Now, I am even more interested and intrigued by this little van! |
