C485
Corgi 485 Austin Mini Countryman 'Surfing'. Very near mint/boxed. With figure and surf boards. From a collector in South London.
Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this popular Mini model has a sea-green finish, ‘wood panelling’, yellow interior, jewelled headlights, aerial, bright chrome roof-rack with two surf boards, and surfing figure.
Suspension on as-new, original shaped spun wheels.
If you want to fault it, you will find a couple of tiny marks at the rear opening doors. Chrome on the roof rack is fine, aerial is straight.
The colourful pictorial box is crisp, clean and bright generally (sunfading at an end flap). Small area of surface loss at an end flap.
