Corgi Toys 227 Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model
Morris Mini-Cooper Competition Model by Corgi Toys, No. 227. Very near mint/boxed. Racing numbers 3 (narrow). A beauty! From The QDT Vault.
Notes
A sought-after Corgi rally model in bright mid-blue finish with a white roof and bonnet, notably intact crossed flags on the bonnet.
Displays beautifully with a crisp finish, an outstanding lustre and thankfully no edge chips to the white roof!
Shaped spun wheels have suspension, narrow racing number 3 complete on both doors, jewelled headlights (one factory set a little askew).
Hard to find a mark to the vibrant paint finish. Tiny nick to one of the door numbers.
The box is very bright and clean, with a crisp feel.
In all original condition, this is a delightful Mini issued between 1962-65.
