LEGO 810 Town Plan is a Classic set from 1962 currently valued at $4,401 for new and sealed sets. Originally retailing for $12.50, the set has gained 35105% in value since retiring in August 1967, with annual appreciation averaging 10.40%. On the used market, values range from $1,099 to $1,346 based on condition.
LEGO Town Plan 810-4, also known as "Town Plan - UK, Cardboard Box," is the cardboard-boxed version of Set 810. It features seven vehicles, including two VW 1200s, a tractor, a fire truck, a pickup truck, a LEGO transport van, and an Esso tanker, along with two cyclists. Sold as the "European Town Plan" in the UK, Ireland, and Australia from 1962 to 1967, the set includes HO scale vehicles like VW Beetles, Bedford trucks, bicycles, and motorcycles, as well as a cardboard town plan board, road signs, petrol pumps, and various red, white, and transparent bricks, slopes, plates, and trees. Unique parts include "ESSO SERVICE" and "HOTEL" decorated bricks.
If the forecast holds, a sealed copy should fetch about $4,648 this time next year, roughly 6% above today.
Town Plan (810-4) is an exceptionally old and rare LEGO set. It has not been available online or in retail stores in good/new condition for over 2 years. Due to its rarity, the estimated value in sealed condition of $4,400.65 may understate its true worth, assuming one can even be found for sale. Since this set was released in 1962, finding it sealed and well-preserved is exceptionally difficult—making complete sets with intact boxes museum-grade collectibles.
