| This is a reissue of the 1967 Monte Carlo Mini Cooper
S with Whizzwheels. The Whizzwheels don't really detract from the model,
especially as a set of extended wheel arches have been added to the casting.
There are some problems with this one though - for a start off, why paint it
yellow? It is a model of a real car - it even has the registration number on a
decal back and front - and the car of which it is a model is red and white, not
yellow. The yellow paint they have used is thick and hides the casting detail
too. This is a nice bright example of the model with minimal wear to the paint and
only a few breaks in the roof-rack.
