Notes
This rare version was issued between 1968-70. Gloss white paint finish with an orange-red paper bonnet label, vivid red interior, grey base. Version with cast wheels. Jewelled lights. Well-shaped original tyres.
Very minor wear to the vividly-coloured bonnet label and close inspection reveals a couple of very small touch-ins (one at a headlight rim and another tiny one at bonnet front edge). Few tiny casting marks at a front wing. Mere dot or two on the roof. Little marking to the front bumper.
Baseplate has poor factory rivets and even a slight bend to the baseplate in one small area (but as-made).
The blue and yellow pictorial box is in factory-fresh condition! Really hard to find this good.
