The model was built by a lifelong Doctor Who collector and originally auctioned in aid of Manchester Children’s Hospital.
The bronze colour replica of Dalek Caan was listed on eBay by the seller due to a house move to a smaller home.
The description of the replica Dalek read: “It is fully manoeuvrable and has an internal seat (see picture). Electrics would need to be installed if required.

“It is presented in battle-scarred condition as preferred by some enthusiasts but could easily be retouched if desired – for example the 56 hemispheres are all secured with nuts and could easily be removed for painting.
“It is fitted with new, heavy-duty wheels that all rotate through 360 degrees.
“The Dalek can be split into up to five sections for ease of transport.”
It attracted 19 bids from keen Doctor Who enthusiasts, before selling for £1,550.
