One of the first signs of things going wrong at Corgi was when this rather sad model came out, using the old Sting Ray casting but losing the nice swivelling jewelled headlamps and getting some dreadful exhaust and engine embellishments instead. It also gets loads of transfers.

It then gets even worse with the Whizzwheels edition, now in silver-blue with a matt black bonnet. 

The wheels and decals are a bit worn on this example but the paintwork looks excellent. All the chrome pieces are present too and the windows clear of cracks. Only available for a year or so from September 1970 and comparatively scarce now, with 'pepperpot' style wheels.
