This particular model was sold on ebay by George's Good Stuff in October 2006 for £89.99 in the following condition:
This beautiful Corgi model is just a single dust-sized mark (on one rear wing) short of mint perfect condition, hard to find better than this anywhere, it's a real beauty, and it comes in its original box which is showing a little light age wear and light creasing, but overall crisp, clean and bright and 100 per cent complete.
All in all, an absolutely superb example of one of Corgi's best early models, very rarely offered anywhere, looking fantastic for its age, and a wonderful addition to any collection!
