C321
Corgi 321 Mini Cooper 'S' Monte Carlo '65 (r.n. 52). Near mint plus/boxed with leaflet. Early issue in over-flashed 317 box. From 'The Monty Calme Corgi Collection'.
Notes
This Mini model has the early style casting with a Morris grille and 317 flashed box. The Mini is in close to mint original condition with a bright finish and a notably complete bonnet label (with no centre line rub!).
Bold racing number ‘52’ is perfect on one side, very small nick in the other.Tiniest of edge nicks to the delicate rear transfer. Presents nicely with jewelled head and spotlights, bright silver radiator and sump guard. Suspension on shaped spun wheels. Fine original tyres. Clean, unrubbed crisp white roof.
The over-flashed box is crisp, clean and fresh with a complete over-stickers label (later issues would be presented in a 321 box). Very nice!
Only the most minor wear.
Nice example – both model and box!
