Notes
A very popular Corgi model – this example is in all original, close to mint condition. Careful handling only. This left-hand drive model has a complete detailed bonnet label, (little edge crease & light age wear), door numbers, “Nairobi” label, and a gleaming scarlet red paint finish, chrome bumpers, wheels, baseplate (minor rubbing), and sparkling jewelled headlights!
Couple of very minor marks to the paint finish.
It comes complete with rhino, as well as the white card wrap-around packing piece and the* yellow card packing piece that fits over the wheel on the roof* (small edge tear).
The colourful card plinth on which car and rhino sit is a most attractive display piece.
Vividly-coloured backdrop with no tears at wheel slots. Both end pull tabs are present. Card is crisp and clean . Box reverse has lots of information about the “Beetle”. Tiny wear only.
The outer box is brightly-coloured and crisp too with no tears or graffiti. Very nice indeed!
Model specific Leaflet is included (not that one corner is burned).
