Description: For many, this is the most desirable of all the Corgi range. Available for a short time to Corgi Club members in 1967 by mail order and not in shops, the status of this little mini has risen unbelievably over the years. New ones in boxes sell for thousands of pounds and I have seen several wrecked models with damaged windows sell for hundreds. Such is the affection for this model. I am sure much of this is because it is a mini! No-one seems to care as much (or pay as much) for what I am sure must be far rarer models that are far harder to find. As some of you may know, my aim is to create a catalogue of all the models and variations available, documenting and photographing originals. Then I sell them to help pay for the next on the 'Wanted List'. So I am hoping this will help fund a few more. It is a genuine model in pretty good condition as you can see. There are several chips and wear to the paintwork but nothing is dented or broken. The windows are clean and clear. The wheels all good and the correct cast type. The transfers are original and appear to have survived well and look complete. It is a Morris Mini-Minor with jewelled lights in this unique rose-red shade. (All the other minis with jewels are Mini Coopers - something to look out for as there are many copies for sale.) There are more models at my own website - just enter corgi.toys in your browser - where more photos, details and discounted prices will be shown. There is a poorer 'Pop Art' Mini, for instance, at a lower price as it has replacement stickers, as well as a large range of other models from this era. The postage cost is higher due to the necessity to include adequate insurance with Royal Mail. Items are usually being despatched within 48 hours of receipt of funds. I am happy to send items abroad but buyers from overseas should make an additional payment for a fully insured service (where available). Buyers are liable for import taxes in their own country where appropriate. These are photos of the actual model you are buying. Remember that these toys are nearly 60 years old! All models advertised are original, not restored or repainted unless I have stated otherwise.
