C227
Corgi 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce issue in blue with a white roof only, blue bonnet. Bold racing number 1 version. Very fine box! From The MBU Corgi Collection.
Notes
A sought-after Corgi rally model in bright mid-blue finish with a white roof and blue bonnet (standard issue has a white bonnet). Lemon interior. Shaped spun wheels have suspension, bold racing number 1 on both doors (bold i.e. thicker print), jewelled headlights. Notably complete door labels. Couple of tiny nicks to the bonnet transfer.
Couple of small marks near a headlight and another on a door hinge.
The box is very fresh-looking, with crisp card and vibrant colours. Virtually shop-fresh in fact.
