With just a little marking to the paint finish, this is a very good find indeed!

There are a few re-touches to the paint finish visible upon close inspection. Two tyres have a flat spot.
The attractive and correctly-pictured Supertoy box is brightly-coloured, with no splits.
Minor wear and rusty staples. No tears, No graffiti.
This is an especially difficult model to find in any condition.
