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, honest condition. Suspension is fine on shaped spun wheels.
Marks mostly confined to the front and rear on this most unforgiving of colour finishes.
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.
The picture box is complete and crisp , with no tears. Lots of end flap spring. Period price at an end flap. Light age/handling wear. Card packing ring is included.
Period Corgi label to be added to the shopkeeper’s display shelf has never been applied – still in its original packet!
