That's probably a couple of hundred overpriced. At auction I would estimate at £3-400 due to the amount of play wear. The box could well be worth more than the model.

Wrong shell? How can you recognize that??
We don't see the gear lever hole or the body number,
But it doesn't seem to be the good external door handles, it shoulds have the later one isn't it?

Don't seem to be any brackets in the boot or any holes for them. Tis a hydro shell though.

Bloody Hell!
Toys / models is something I have never taken any notice of (apart from a small, cheap, battered collection of Dinkys) I had no idea that some of the models were quite so sought after.
As has already been said, it makes some of the full sized ones look cheap!

it is! Trailer available aswell! The epitome of club motorsport, like historic rallying, or Mighty Minis, everything that historic racing isn't -

I was going to bid on this today as the decorators van is a rare thing. The Royal Mail van is only worth £80-100.

Hammer price was £620, with buyers commission and VAT the total was just over £750. I didn't bid (my max was £300)

I'd give that an oily rag and keep it like that. I imagine it will be another "as left the factory" resto.
Shame about the sunroof and the new numberplates.

Yes, give it an MOT and be done with it. Looks great.

I thought the seats as well.
None of the above match the dash trim.
The 'sunroof' looks like a rear windscreen just stuck in....

They both look new, bought to make it look more complete I suppose. You get a feel for a car don't you, and the seats don't look anywhere near as tired as the rear arch trim. Usually a set of trim ages along with the seats as a set, and fade/wear together. I've sniffed a lot of brocade in my time and it does look like different pieces. No biggy but the thing I find odd is the bonnet badge arrangement, which are located wrongly, why would it have had a new bonnet? (Looks like it's had a wing though). Body number's there though so should be a pretty straight car.
