Why this car mattersThe Austin K2 was a crucial part of Britain’s emergency vehicle history. Originally used during WWII as a military ambulance, it saw extended life serving civilian organisations like the National Coal Board in the post-war years. Its rugged build and simple functionality made it ideal for industrial use across coalfields and remote locations.
This version carries the no-nonsense National Coal Board livery—designed for practicality, not flash. A symbol of Britain’s working-class resilience, it’s a slice of everyday industrial history in miniature.
How to use itPosition it on a model railway layout, an industrial diorama, or a historic vehicle shelf. No tools, glue, or paint needed—just place and admire.
This is a diecast model. It is fragile and not recommended for children.
