Corgi 282

Notes

This sought-after little car was made by Corgi between 1971-74. It has a smart black and white finish with a luminous orange and black paper stripe label on the roof. Racing numbers ‘177’ on both opening doors. Bright red detailed interior, jewelled headlights, Whizzwheels with suspension. Opening bonnet and boot. Bright chrome.
Intact paper labels throughout. Note the blue-green glazing (2nd issue, early version has clear glazing).

Small raised casting mark on the passenger side front wing and a couple of negligible marks ( probably factory).
It comes in a bright, crisp, later ‘Rainbow’ window box with intact original smooth cellophane. Day-one vivid colours to the crisp card. Tiny start of a tear.
