Notes
A very popular Corgi model – this example is in all original, close to perfect condition, with a fine and gleaming scarlet paint finish. The left-hand drive version has a notably complete detailed bonnet label, complete door numbers and “Nairobi” label. Chrome bumpers, wheels, baseplate, and sparkling jewelled headlights.
Little chip at the top edge of bonnet.and a very small mark at the edge of the boot.
It comes complete with rhino, as well as the white card wrap-around packing piece and the* yellow card packing piece that fits over the wheel on the roof*.
The colourful card plinth on which car and rhino sit is a most attractive display piece. Crisp, as-new feel to the undamaged card. Very, very nice!
Vividly-coloured backdrop with no tears at wheel slots. Both end pull tabs are present. Box reverse has lots of information about the “Beetle”.
The outer box is brightly-coloured and crisp too with no tears. Lovely deep colours. Period price label at an end flap. Very minor wear only.
Model specific Leaflet and card packing included, too.
