That's had a log book swap. Should have Morris Mini Cooper cast into the base, not Morris Mini Minor. Not to mention the later tyres, bonnet should be white and grille and bumpers should be silver. Value is about £1.

I just thought it was comically awful, never mind the details! Worthy of Timex Bob?

Chip? Or moulded that way so you know the Lock position without having to look in the dark?
I wonder if Speedy have chips in all their choke knobs too?

Looks like it's all Copper. Might be worth weighing it in for scrap.

Not sure why these are so rare… but they do seem to command a premium on eBay.

For some weird reason they do seem to be very rare indeed, but that price is ridiculous!
