Notes
Always a desirable Rally Mini model – this example is in all original, close to mint condition.
One of the most sought-after Corgi rally models! Sponsored by the Sun Newspaper in 1966, this RAC Rally Mini Car has a gleaming all original red and white finish, with distinctive detailed transfers throughout. Suspension on shaped spun wheels, jewelled head and spot lights. Very close to mint paint finish. Well-shaped original tyres.
Complete bonnet transfer. Small nick to the rear transfer. Small chip to one of the door transfers and a faint scratch.
This rally car comes in the correct over-flashed box which, fortunately, has been opened at one end only, leaving the over-flash label intact. The over-sticker is complete and bright, with no ruffling at the end of the sticker either.
Light wear.
With model specific leaflet:
