Notes

A small range of Corgi models (5 in total) were issued with a gold mirror-finish in 1961 and were sold by Marks & Spencer. Few are available and are sought-after nowadays, even if they did not sell particularly well at the time.
This Austin Healey model is a beautiful example, in all original condition with the distinctive mirror finish.
In impressive, close to mint condition.

Complete with the windscreen (often missing!).
Small area of paint bubbling and a little flake of paint nearby on the bonnet.
The car is mounted on a black moulded base with a gold-edged name label. Also present is the piece of clear perspex which fits over the model when on the stand (notably complete with the tags which secure it into the black base).
