Rare to come to the marketplace, this is an impressive all original Lotus Elan model finished in deep green with a vivid deep yellow roof and stripe. Especially rare with this detailed cream interior. Shaped spun wheels. Fine original tyres.
As pictured on the box and indeed as pictured on page 205 of The Great Book of Corgi.
We believe this is the actual model pictured in The Great Book of Corgi on page 205 in our edition – two small dots of yellow paint at the top edge of the yellow bonnet stripe.
