Notes
This Austin Taxi model has a gleaming, sleek, black finish, R.A.F. blue interior and base, shaped spun shining wheels. Driver, steering wheel. “Taxi” lettering is near complete; if you peer closely, there is a small chip to the top surface of the sign, so the tiniest portion of the tip of the letters ‘X and I’ are missing – really tiny though! Faintest of rubs at a wheel arch. Couple of small marks at bumpers. Lovely original silver detailing of the radiator, meter and lights.
The lighter yellow card box is very bright and clean, complete with all end flaps (small tear to the tuck-in part of one large end flap, crease to another). Small slit to the top of the box (not immediately obvious). No graffiti.
