Very nice indeed, PM me if you want to sell it ;-)

I'm just restoring one at the moment, found a replacement set of wicker work stickers for it too!

Here you go

Lovely models thanks for the pics

 

Mine isn't too bad but one headlamp missing and the box is a little tatty but new repro box is 9 quid so easy fix.

 

They make good money in excellent condition but played with they are only about 30 quid.

Repro boxes are not worth the money, they do not add value, and in most cases will put people off when it comes time to sell. The original box, no matter how bad, is always the best thing to have and in some cases the original box can be worth more than the model.
