Complete ‘Red Cross’ emblems on both doors, driver. Steering wheel has not been properly fitted ( much higher than it should be). Shiny shaped spun wheels with suspension. Black, fine tread tyres. Sleek matt baseplate. Patient on a stretcher.
In unused, original comdition, with a couple of negligible, probably as-made marks. Silver trim is unmarked.
