C275
Corgi 275 Rover 2000 TC. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce WHITE version with DARK RED interior. From the Italian collection.
Notes
It has been a while since we have offered this particular verison for sale! Finished in crisp white with a vivid dark red interior, and amber roof panel.
A lovely example with jewelled headlights and plated bumpers and grille.
One of the sought-after ‘Golden Jacks’ cars, complete with spare wheel inside the intact hinged cover on boot.
Upon minute scrutiny you will find a couple of negligible dots to the paint finish. Two small areas of casting roughness (one low down on the rear of the model driver’s side, the other on the front edge of the bonnet). No loss of paint at these two small areas. Very small factory blemish on the windscreen (as-made).
The cellophane-fronted box is complete and feels quite crisp. Card and original cellophane front is intact. Minor handling grubbiness and a corner edge ruffle on the top of the header card
Issued 1968.
Not an easy version to find.
