Notes
Issued between 1964-65, this is one of the range of exciting racing Minis produced by Corgi during this period. Extremely popular at the time, they are sought-after by collectors these days!
This ‘spotlight’ Mini is in very close to mint condition. An original red and white finish on this racing model with a bright chrome spotlight on the roof (which swivels). Bold print racing number ‘37’ is complete on both doors. *’Monte Carlo’ bonnet & boot transfers are complete too. Bright jewelled headlights and an attractive original finish on the silver radiator and bumper. Few tiny marks to the front ‘numberplate’ area. Couple of tiny marks besides.
The complete, fresh, clean and bright box is crisp, although note the area of surface loss on one end flap. Small light stain.
