Corgi 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model. Deeper mid-blue with white bonnet & roof. Very near mint/boxed. 'Thin' racing number 7. From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
A sought-after Corgi rally model in deeper mid-blue finish with a white roof and bonnet, notably intact crossed flags on the bonnet.
Displays beautifully with a crisp finish, an outstanding lustre and thankfully no edge chips to the white roof!
Shaped spun wheels have suspension, racing number 7 on both doors (more unusual ‘thin’ racing numbers – most often bold i.e. thicker print), jewelled headlights. Complete racing numbers. Barely a mark to the paint finish!
The box is complete, clean and bright. Very minor age wear only. Comes complete with the Swansea Corgi Club Membership Form.
In all original condition, this is a delightful Mini issued between 1962-65.
