Catalogue listing

Oxford Diecast Vauxhall Cresta Taxi Black – 1:76 scale model. The model is supplied with the manufacturer part number 76CRE004 and depicts a British Railways “late Crest” vehicle in black livery.

The subject vehicle is a PA‑Cresta taxi, a version of the Vauxhall Cresta that was fitted with an American‑inspired design. Over 80,000 PA Crestas were manufactured during the production run, which spanned the late 1950s and early 1960s.

This die‑cast replica is intended for collectors of British railway and automotive miniature models and presents a highly detailed representation of the original taxi at a 1:76 (OO scale) size.
