Notes
This Austin Taxi model has such a gleaming, sleek, black finish, R.A.F. blue interior and base, shaped spun shining wheels. Well-shaped smooth original tyres (couple of splits and light crazing). Driver, steering wheel. “Taxi” lettering is complete. Lovely original silver detailing of the radiator, meter and lights.
Couple of small marks at the tip of the TAXI roof sign (nearly always the case!). Couple of mere dots besides.
The vibrant card box is fresh and clean, complete with all end flaps. Light wear and a little label residue on an end flap.
