Notes
An exceptionally scarce, late variation (export), this Commer Pick-Up is finished in deep orange-yellow with textured olive-green canopy (unique to this model – and could not have been swapped from another Corgi item. Longer than the canopy on the Corgi Land Rover, for example). Silver trim and shaped spun wheels.
Reference to this version made on page 155 of The Great Book of Corgi; version with red canopy pictured.
In virtually mint condition. Couple of very small stray smudges of factory silver.
An exciting find.
The colourful and complete box is the most sought-after version to accompany this version, with this model pictured in these colours. Light wear includes a tiny tear.
