A sought-after Corgi model in primrose yellow finish, including the bonnet, and with a white roof. Detailed crossed flag transfer is notably complete on the bonnet. Shaped spun wheels have suspension, bold racing number 1 labels on both doors are complete, jewelled headlights.
A little mark on the bonnet and a tiny mark on the roof. Couple of mere pinpricks besides.
The box is complete and bright with all end flaps intact. A little age/handling wear, but no tears or graffiti. ‘Swansea’ Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
In all original condition, this is a delightful Mini issued between 1962-65.
