Notes
A very popular Corgi model – this example is in very close to mint condition, with a gleaming scarlet paint finish. The left-hand drive version has a notably complete detailed bonnet label, complete door numbers and “Nairobi” label (a couple of little creases). Chrome bumpers, wheels, baseplate, and jewelled headlights.
It comes with the rhino, who sits atop the complete and colourfully illustrated card plinth.  All push-out tabs for the wheels are still remarkably in place. Tiny wear only.
Vividly-coloured backdrop for this model.
Box reverse has lots of information about the “Beetle”.  
The outer box is crisp and  complete, with eye-catching graphics. Light wear 
Model specific Leaflet included as well as the little circular card ring too.
