Notes
First issue model introduced in 1965 in white, with a bright red interior and a black “Saint” matchstick figure transfer on the bonnet. The car is in very close to mint condition. Displays superbly with a crisp white paint finish, and a complete “Saint” matchstick figure on the bonnet. Jewelled headlights, perfect suspension on shaped spun wheels, driver. As-new original tyres. All original throughout.
Couple of little bumper over-rider marks and a mere dot or two besides.
The blue and yellow picture box is a first-rate example; crisp and complete, with brightest colours on intact card. Barely any wear whatever. Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
A very difficult find in this condition.
