This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in August 2006 for £155 in the following condition:
This hard-to-find TV-related Corgi model is in perfect mint condition, I can't find a mark on it anywhere, and it comes in its equally superb original window box, with perfect cellophane, very crisp clean and bright, inside and out.
All in all, a superb example of this highly collectable and scarce Corgi model from the early 1970s, and a wonderful addition to any collection!
