C227
Corgi 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model. Lemon & white. Very near mint/boxed. From the 1200 model Italian collection.
Notes
A popular Corgi model in primrose yellow finish with a white roof and bonnet, crossed flags on the bonnet. Shaped spun wheels have suspension, racing number 7 on both doors, jewelled headlights.
Upon closest scrutiny, you will see tiny wear to the chequered flag pole. None of the usual chipping at roof edges which would spoil the appearance of this racing Mini!
The box is complete and vividly-coloured, if rather grubby now on the top surface. Minor handling wear besides including a small scuff to the card.
