Notes
Exceptionally difficult to find, this maroon Sunbeam model with a cream interior has spun wheels. Very rare to come to the market place, this model is in all original, very close to perfect condition.
Upon close inspection, you will see a small chip on the door top edge passenger-side, couple of negligible dots behind the driver’s door and another couple (which are even fainter!) on the wing, driver’s side. Notably the driver’s head is unscathed! Original silver-edged windscreen (rub to the silver edging in one place – being extra fussy here!). Bright baseplate.
The box is complete and bright with the correct colour spot. Couple of small scissor cuts at an end flap edge. Minor shelf grubbiness besides.
A difficult to find variant – only the second example we have ever offered for sale!
