Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
Usually found in dark metallic red, this colour issue is a sought-after issue. A lustrous deep metallic blue and white finish with jewelled headlights and spotlights. Opening boot and doors. Detailed pale blue interior (yellowish tinge to the dash board). Suspension on wire wheels. As-new original tyres. Very fine!
Minor mark or two from mint.
Really crisp, pictorial box is very clean and bright, complete with all end flaps intact. Little storage crumple. No tears. No graffiti.
