C318
Corgi 318 Lotus Elan S.2. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce version in white with 'Tiger' logo. Complete with unapplied racing numbers & packing ring. Really crisp box! From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
This scarce Lotus has a bright white all original finish with a black interior, and a complete “I’VE GOT A TIGER IN MY TANK” logo at the rear (usual issue has a metallic blue finish).
The model is in all original, unused condition. Suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels.
Opening bonnet reveals a detailed engine, side windows may be raised or lowered, tipping seats. Racing decals are included and notably unapplied, the full complement still on the backing sheet.
Correct racing driver behind the wheel.
Upon closest scrutiny, you will see a tiny mark head-on and a few tiny marks besides.
The picture box is really very fine indeed – so crisp and fresh-looking. Light storage crumple, otherwise hard to fault.
Corgi Club Membership Form and card packing are included.
Shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap.
A rare item.
