Notes
A difficult version to find, this Mini model has a primrose yellow finish with a white roof only ( bonnet is Primrose yellow too), complete crossed flags on the bonnet. Shaped spun wheels have suspension, intact bold racing number 1 on both doors, jewelled headlights.
A superb model on display.
Mere dot or two and a little minor marking on the underside.
The box is complete, clean and vividly-coloured. Tiny wear only. Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
In all original condition, this is a delightful Mini issued between 1962-65.
