Corgi Toys 318 Lotus Elan S2
Lotus Elan S.2. by Corgi Toys, No. 318. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce version in white with 'Tiger' logo. Complete with unapplied racing numbers. From The West Midlands Collection.
Notes
This scarce Lotus has a bright white finish with a black interior, and a complete “I’VE GOT A TIGER IN MY TANK” logo at the rear (usual issue has a metallic blue finish).
The model presents well. Suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels, with well-shaped, original tyres with a fine tread.
Opening bonnet reveals a detailed engine, side windows may be raised or lowered, tipping seats. Racing decals are included and notably unapplied, the full complement still on the backing sheet.
Correct racing driver behind the wheel.
Hard to find the merest mark, but upon closest scrutiny, you will note the occasional tiny touch-in.
The box is complete, bright and clean with a crisp, rarely handled feel,
Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
Shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap. Light storage crumple.
