Notes
This model was issued between 1972-76 and is in superb condition – and an especially difficult find with a blue interior. Very bright yellow finish with complete racing numbers on both doors, gleaming chrome roof rack too. Notably complete bonnet transfer. Just a small nick to the rear transfer. Sparkling jewelled headlights and two spare wheels. Shiny sump guard. Double-spoked Whizzwheel version:
Few tiny wheel arch marks.
The crisp and bright ‘Rainbow’ window box is the narrower version (hard to find). Intact original cellophane. Really crisp and the end flaps are resistant to opening (rarely prised open). Intact yellow card inner with shaped top section.
A desirable and ever-popular Corgi item!
