Re: 57a Wolseley 1500 (gold?)
That does look like gold trim (although the umberplate is an aftermarket addition).
I've found that some gold trim is not at all obvious when the model is viewed head on, but is when the model is viewed obliquely (i.e. from the side, from below or from above).

The trim is a bit messy around the right hand headlight isn't it? I don't have many trimmed Matchbox but they are all much neater than that.

Hello friends,
thank you for the interest in this model.
I also see a model with orignal Golden grille.
But confused me the number plate (license plate).
Friendly greetings from Austria and a good night's beer.

I ask for the opinion of the forum members.
Should I remove the license plate sign (number plate) from the model.
What would you do as a collector
Please get a good thought to do so.
Thank you, Mike
