Not to Corgi standards, this version has a charm all of its own.
With intact black aerial, and one-piece wheels/tyres. White interior. Red steering wheel. With ‘STATE PATROL’ labels (extremely similar but not identical to the Corgi counterpart).
Few tiny dots to the roof paint finish. Barely a mark besides.
Complete and bright illustrated card box has a carefully re-attached internal end flap. Very small area of surface loss and light wear
