Austin Mini Countryman 'Surfing' by Corgi Toys, No. 485. Scarce with CAST WHEELS. Very near mint/boxed, with leaflet. With figure and surf boards still banded to the model. Crisp box! From The Elmer Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this popular Mini model has a sea-green finish, ‘wood panelling’, yellow interior, jewelled headlights, aerial, bright chrome roof-rack with two surf boards, and surfing figure.
A more difficult find with cast wheels (made towards the end of the production run). Suspension is fine. Well-shaped original tyres save for one which is slightly mal-formed (as-made).
Figure and surf boards still banded to the model.
Very close to mint condition.
The colourful pictorial box is crisp, clean and bright. Fresh. Tiny wear.Looks like old shop stock. Complete with model specific leaflet/Corgi Club Membership Form.
