Corgi Toys 319 Lotus Elan Coupe
Lotus Elan Coupe by Corgi Toys, No. 319. Very near mint/boxed. Red & white version with DRIVER FIGURE & BOOT TRANSFER. Assumed factory sample piece. A rare model from The Valencia Distributor Collection. Starting bid £300. Please note that QDT apply 12.5% buyer's commission.
Notes
An exceptional find.
This red and white version of the Lotus Elan Coupe is a very rare find fitted with a driver (no opening doors, so factory fitted) and has ‘Tiger in My Tank’ transfer on the boot. This model, we assume is a sample piece that never made it into production.
Couple of small (assumed) factory assembly marks.
Colourful and complete card picture box has a little storage wear. Note the period label on the inside surface of one end flap. Intriguing.
With Instruction Leaflet & racing numbers on sheet.
_Note that QDT sold a blue and white version also with driver and ‘Tiger’ label, a few years ago as part of The Old School Collection.
