Notes

Inspired by the James Bond film “You Only Live Twice”, this model was made during 1967-69. Very carefully handled and stored, this car is in very near mint condition, with both figures present, intact aerial, jewelled front and rear lights, complete registration numbers at front and rear, wire wheels, suspension. Notably the boot closes properly! Nearly always chipped at the rear over-riders, this example still has much of the bronze paint finish still intact.

C336f1402

Subjected to minute scrutiny, a very subtle ‘orange peel’ effect to the paint finish may be noted in places. Visible only under intense light and even then, a magnifying glass may be needed!
Mere pinprick or two to the paint finish besides.
The Secret Instructions Packet has been carefully opened (no tears but a little ruffled) and inside, there are the instructions, James Bond lapel badge, sprue with all eight rockets still attached. All original.

C336f1405

The inner plinth is very crisp; in virtually shop-fresh condition with all four push-out tabs at the wheel slots still present and attached. Wonderfully vivid graphics/art work:

The outer box looks impressive with day-one bright colours on crisp, silky card Barely any wear. Minor rubbed area at an end flap (easily overlooked) and tiny wear besides.
A sought-after James Bond item.
