Notes
Issued between 1964-65, this Mini-Cooper ‘S’ Monte Carlo version is one of the range of exciting racing Minis produced by Corgi during this period. Extremely popular at the time, they are even more sought-after by collectors these days!
Original red and white finish on this racing model with a chrome spotlight on the roof. Bold print, complete racing number ‘37’ on one door, a small, light scratch to the other. ‘Monte Carlo’ bonnet transfer is notably complete and thankfully free of the near-obligatory centre line rub! Bright jewelled headlights, silver radiator and bumper. Rear transfer is complete too.
Barely a mark to the paint finish. Tiny rub to the top of the spotlight.
The complete and bright, scarce stamped box has a crisp feel. Light wear. Original card packing ring is included.
