Notes
This model has just come from a single-owner childhood collection. It is a superb example of this sought-after Corgi model – in virtually mint condition! The car is absolutely gleaming; paint finish, bonnet logo, all chrome parts, detailed cast wheels, baseplate. Functions perfectly. One or two tiny marks (that you really have to look for) stop this car from being mint. It comes complete with the original ring and card circular piece that sits on the roof. All original!
The colourful card plinth is very crisp, fresh and bright – as nice as you could wish! The outer box too is complete and bright. It has an area of surface removal at one end flap (2.5cm x 2.5cm) due to a price label. The other end has some sticky tape residue. Minor wear besides.
A lovely, all original example – a great nostalgic item!
