Another very scarce model from this collector. This variation has a a rich maroon finish with matching ridged wheels, closed wheel arches.
A little ‘spidering’ on the base. Smooth original tyres (one rear one has carefully been replaced at some time).
Rubbing at side raised body lines and some marking to the paint finish. If examined closely, some touch-ins may be detected.
An extremely difficult variation to find.
