Notes
Not an easy model to find – and this early example in vivid red is eagerly sought by collectors. This impressive car has a vibrant, all original lustrous finish, black interior, spoked wheels, opening doors, bonnet (revealing a detailed engine), and boot. Detailed interior has tip up seats and a rear sliding seat.
In close to mint condition.
Note the unusual addition of a Jaguar emblem on the bonnet. Little chip at door handles and boot catch. Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish. Rear light detail added.
The colourful blister box is bright and clean with an intact bubble. Unpunched header card. Light wear includes a few creases.
Not often found with the detachable card piece which slides in at the back of the box.
This example comes complete with the stiff perspex packing piece which fits over the model when it is placed within the ‘bubble’.
