C227
Corgi 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model. Near mint plus/boxed. Very fresh box! Blue with white roof and bonnet issue. 'Thin' racing number 1. From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
This attractive Corgi rally model has a bright mid blue finish with a white roof and bonnet, and complete crossed flags on the bonnet. Shiny shaped spun wheels have suspension, ‘thin’ racing number 1 on both doors, jewelled headlights.
None of the usual little ‘nibbles’ at roof edge which could spoil the appearance of this racing Mini. One little mark low down on one side and a mere dot or two besides.
The pictorial box is a lovely fresh, crisp example.
