Ecuire Ecosse Transporter Gift Set by Corgi

This particular gift set was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in April 2006 for £723 in the following condition:
This very hard to find set contains the large Ecurie Ecosse Car Transporter which apart from a couple of tiny (factory?) fleabite marks is immaculate, an absolute stunner.
Also present are the original three boxed racing cars, all three of them in perfect mint condition and in their perfect mint boxes.

The whole set comes in its complete original outer box, which is virtually perfect, showing only the slightest age wear, very crisp, clean, bright and strong and 100 per cent complete and intact, showing no splits, graffiti, creasing or labels of any kind whatsoever - perfect!

Inside is all the original inner card packing to hold the transporter and three boxed racing cars in place, plus the very scarce original operating instructions leaflet, plus an early Join The Corgi Model Club slip.

Overall a fantastic and very rarely offered all-original gift set - so don’t miss out on this very rare opportunity to acquire a top quality antique collectible that can only increase in value over the years!
