Notes
This Austin Taxi model has a gleaming, sleek, black finish, R.A.F. blue interior and base, shaped spun shining wheels. Driver, steering wheel. “Taxi” lettering is complete. Lovely original silver detailing of the radiator, meter and lights. Note the little silver detail on the window post driver’s side ( not a chip!).
Presents well:
Scuff to one side of the roof sign and a few very small marks besides.
The vividly-coloured picture box is clean, bright and complete with all end flaps (little end flap tear and a crease). No graffiti. Ver minor puncture has pressed back into place.
