A rare toy lorry with the wrong colours has sold for a whopping £13,500.

The Matchbox Regular Wheels 13d Dodge BP Wreck Truck was originally produced in 1965 with a green cab and lemon body.

But the original colour scheme was quickly changed to a lemon cab and green body.

There was only a very limited run of the original colour scheme, so models particularly in good condition, are rare.
