Notes
This version of the James Bond’s Aston Martin model was issued between 1973-76 and has all the features that has made this a firm Corgi favourite with many collectors:
ejector seat, revolving number plates, retractable machine guns, tyre slasher blades, telescopic over-riders – this car is literally loaded with features! Roof function faulty – but all other features function well.
The silver paint finish is very fresh as is the gold radiator grille, and bumpers. Rear bullet screen. Red interior.
Detailed spoked wheels with slasher blades. Suspension is fine.
In mint condition (note the small area of rough casting on a front wing, as-made).
Secret Instruction Packet has never been opened so inside we would expect to see the Secret Instructions, badge, spare villain, and full sheet of number-plates. Note this is not an opened envelope which ahs been later re-sealed.
The Rainbow window-box is clean, bright and complete. Intact original cellophane. Light storage wear on box reverse (minor).
