Notes
We believe the decision to produce this model with green base and bumpers was a last minute decision at Corgi. Note the in-house obliteration of the word ‘plated’ on the window box reverse – and indeed the model image on the box reverse does look as if the bumpers and base are plated. This example is perhaps just one of a very short run, or perhaps the only example of the plated version with red bumpers!
Complete ‘Flower Power’ labels, this great little car from Corgi gets noticed! Very close to mint condition with bright and complete paper labels throughout (little wear to front edge of bonnet labels now).
Whizzwheels.
Very near mint.
Early style red and yellow window box is complete with intact original cellophane. Light wear.
