Sorry, Ewan, I see a red / beige model.
Maybe a new code?

Very nice model Ewan. It seems that you have very, very rare cream/red model. I have mentioned it approx. 4 years ago.
Perhaps this extreme interesting topic should be moved to "Lesney Matchbox regular wheels 1-75"

Hi Antonin.
Thank you for showing the three different models.

Hi Ewan.
I said, it is very rare, with this cream color. :idea:
Congratulations. :D

I would like to second that, it really shows off the different colour variations brilliantly.

Antons specimen is exceptional!
I had seen quite a number of these Red & Cream Commers but were always in beat up condition.Could these had possibly come well before the Red & White change-over?
Nice find Ewan!
