Notes
An exciting addition to your Corgi collection, this Sunbeam Imp model is in all original condition in vibrant metallic mid-blue with eye-catching transfers. Small nick to the front MOnte Carlo transfer. Spun wheels. Complete with six jewelled lights. Notably, this model has suspension on all four wheels.
Intact rear opening hatch and correct detailed front and side screens.
Note the windscreen is ‘plain’ and so a scarce version without the usual detail.
Paint finish is virtually mint.
The over-flashed 328 Hillman Imp box (1st issue) is complete and bright with an intact over-flash label with blue print.
One end of the box has never been opened so preserving the overflash label (quite often the flash label is slit to open the end of the box it covers – but not in this case). Light wear.
