Gold interior and both original seated figures of Lady Penelope and Parker. It comes with an intact bonnet emblem, jewelled headlights. Number plates front and rear (minor creases).
The sliding roof is perfectly intact and slides nicely. The car comes complete with a firing rocket and four rear harpoons which are still factory-stapled to the card stand.

A couple of little marks to the all original paint finish.
Shiny wheels – version with shiny spun wheels with ‘concentric circles’ and raised central point detail.
The colourful card stand is complete and bright. A crease and light wear – nearly always found with more wear than this – and it is easy to see why, this is a heavy vehicle.

Instructions are on the reverse of the card stand, detailing how to fire the front rocket and rear harpoons.
The pictorial card box is complete, clean and bright. A little wear and a small tears to the always-vulnerable tuck-in part of one large end flap. Small part-puncture to one of the internal end flaps.
One of the most sought-after Gerry Anderson inspired Dinky models!
