Sorry Leonty, no it doesn't have clear windows.
It has light green windows.
And yes J, it has the reverse mounted base.

If I was a child, I would be very disappointed about this.
Now it is a nice collectible factory error.

If Sven does not mind, this BMW should be included in the next batch of oops! models to be added to Nick's website.

The last few months I lost a little bit my passion to collect Matchbox models, I don't know why.
Maybe I couldn't find some payable models I searched for and on the other side I found many suspect models on my main source (eBay). Anyway last weeks it got better, I got some new models.

A nice matching pair Sven and as John said, don't let the fakers on those online auction sites put you off or get in your way. Don't forget that any models you take a fancy to but suspect something is not right, just let us know here on the forum and we will try and help you steer clear of those faked models.
