Hello Bronzegreen, I have recorded three distinct green based colour combinations on the Corgi Bentley 'Continental' and you can see these on my website by clicking on the link below. It is always difficult deciding what colour shades are on models in pictures taken under not ideal conditions and pictures published in magazine articles, but at least we can be sure the example you have in the set will bring you at least £100 and possibly much more upto that staggering £408 if it were to be auctioned as a separate model!!

Re: #25 shell or bp garage layout
I'll have to dig it out and have a look in daylight
I do have a dealer very interested at the moment so if anyone is genuinely interested then shout up
You'll be lucky to find another quite like this

Hello John, I saw your posting over on 'Planet Diecast' and I hope you did not mind me elaborating a bit on your precious find, but I want you to get the best price for it.
Yes, a good daylight photo of the Bentley would be nice and if possible a view inside the open boot, the whole baseplate and if you can, try and see if you can get a picture of the inside of the bonnet by looking up into the front wheel-arch, what you are looking for is a totally smooth surface or a surface with cross-hatching. It is easy to see with the naked eye, but not always easy to get a picture, see how you get on.
Regards,
