Notes
A very sought-after export issue in all-white; usual version is in metallic blue. This version was issued just for one year only – 1966, and so is hard to find, particularly in this condition. The model is original, having just come out of storage after many years. The car is very close to mint with just a few little dots/minute marks. The chrome is bright. The bonnet label is complete and bright, with very minor edge grubbiness. It comes with the original Waverley ring, which appears never to have been removed from the slot (so much so that we are reluctant to remove it for fear of causing damage). Two card packing rings are also present (so often missing).
The inner card stand is crisp with very bright strong colours. Looks very close to shop-fresh!
The outer box is extremely crisp and fresh, with only the most minor wear.
A fine example all-round!
