Notes
This Austin Taxi model has a gleaming, sleek, original, black finish, R.A.F. blue interior and base, shaped spun shining wheels. Driver, steering wheel.* “Taxi” lettering is complete*; if you peer closely, there is a a little minor rubbing to the top surface of the sign. Few minor marks besides. Lovely original silver detailing of the radiator, meter and lights.
Looks unused.
Bright axles including the ends and as-new original tyres.
The lighter yellow card box is crisp and colourful, complete with all end flaps (very small tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap). No graffiti. Thin stain strip at the edge of the box top surface ( probably picked up during storage).
