Notes
A truly outstanding example of this sought-after Corgi model – just about the nicest example we have had in a long while!
The car is absolutely gleaming; paint finish, all chrome parts, detailed cast wheels, baseplate. Complete original paper label on the bonnet. Minor age transparency on the label – but we are being extra-fussy here!
Functions perfectly. The original ring is included.
The colourful card plinth is very crisp, fresh and bright, with just a little wear on one wheel slot.
The outer box too is clean and fresh – this example has been very carefully looked-after. Just one owner from new.
Just a small ink blot at one bottom corner:
A beautiful example that would be difficult to better.
