Notes

Purple windows, grey unpainted base, standard Superfast wheels. The paint is worn and chipped, particularly on edges. The clear coat seems to have yellowed, making the windows appear purple. A slight hinge for an opening rear engine cover is visible but the joint is sealed shut in this version (some releases had functional covers).
