Less common than the later silver version, this model is in pale cream with light blue base and interior and grey plastic wheels on a rounded axle. The serving hatch opens to reveal a detailed interior. The roof sign has 'Coffee, Tea, Snacks' decals on each side in red and black, and a large decal on the lower body side with 'Refreshments' in red and black and 'Minerals, Sandwiches, Hot Pies' in black. With a tow bar that can be hitched to any Matchbox car with a suitable tow hook.
This example is in near mint condition. There is a paint chip on the back edge of the roof and a few tiny marks elsewhere. The decals are largely undamaged apart from the usual loss of the black stripe below the counter, the towbar is intact and the axle is rust-free. The type B4 box is complete, but has crushing at one end and creasing on the sides.
