C333
Corgi 333 Mini Cooper 'S' "SUN-RAC Rally". SHAPED SPUN wheel issue. Very near mint/boxed, with leaflet (carefully unfolded for the first time for these pictures). In over-flashed box. Scarce. From a high quality collection in the U.S.
Notes
One of the most sought-after Corgi rally models! Relatively few have survived in this very fine condition.
Gleaming, all original red and white finish, with distinctive detailed transfers, suspension on shaped spun wheels, jewelled head and spot lights. Well-shaped original tyres.
A precious and beautiful survivor with just one tiny (probably factory assembly) nick on the bonnet transfer (just where the transfer meets the outer casting line on the bonnet).
Gleaming red and white paint finish. Couple of small marks on one side. Couple of small stray flecks of transfer on one side (may be possible to remove).
With model specific leaflet. The original owner resisted the temptation to open the leaflet. We gingerly opened it (for the first time) for this picture.
This rally car comes in the correct over-flashed box which, fortunately, has been opened at one end only, leaving the over-flash label intact. A very pleasing example. The over-sticker is bright and fresh with no ruffling at the end of the sticker either. Small scuff and light wear. Colours are strong.
