Notes
A sought-after Corgi rally model in bright light blue finish with a white roof and bonnet, crossed flags on the bonnet. Shiny shaped spun wheels have suspension, racing number 1 on both doors (bold i.e. thicker print), jewelled headlights.
The detailed crossed flags on the bonnet are complete.
Little edge nick to tone of the racing numbers, the other has a tiny light surface scratch.
None of the usual little ‘nibbles’ at roof edge which could spoil the appearance of this racing Mini. Virtually perfect paint finish!
The pictorial box is complete and quite brightly-coloured, with a pleasing, barely handled silky feel. Plenty of end flap spring. No tears or punctures. Shopkeeper’s period price at an end flap.
