C227
Corgi 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model. Excellent/unboxed. Rare PROMOTIONAL ISSUE "GLÄNSER". Primrose yellow & white, racing number 1. From a Corgi enthusiast in Germany.
Notes
Few collections have this original and rare promotional issue with ‘GLÄNSER’ on the roof! A popular Corgi model in primrose yellow finish with a white roof and bonnet; this is a Code 3 model from Denmark.
Detailed crossed flag transfer is notably complete on the bonnet. Shaped spun wheels have suspension, racing number 1 labels on both doors (few edge nicks to one label), jewelled headlights.
Peppering of small marks to the paint finish as you might expect from an unboxed model. The all-important ‘GLÄNSER’ transfer is very nearly complete, however.
In all original condition, this is an extremely scarce variant.
We doubt that we will ever see another!
