This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in March 2006 for £160.50 in the following condition:
This beautiful very early Corgi model is in pristine perfect condition, an absolute stunner, I can’t find a mark on it anywhere, and it comes in its superb original box, showing an original shop-printed price on one side, but otherwise very crisp, clean, bright and 100 per cent complete - an absolute beauty!

One of Corgi's wonderful early sports car models from their original first issue models range in the mid-1950s, this is the best example you will find anywhere of this gorgeous and highly collectable model - it’s a must for any serious collector!
