I don't recall seeing that on the racing Mini either, must have missed it.

No, it's not a variation I own.
I think it was discussed on Lefora and, at that time, no one recognised the label.

nice export model Simon
looking at the Budget rental one is that also without Vauxhall cast on the rear, there is one currently on ebay which is like this and I'm wondering if the promotional models used this casting or it's just a coincidence .....something I will have to keep an eye out for

Pictuers I have of the Budget version are minus the VAUXHALL so I think they will all be like it, but of course it can not be set in stone, as we have found with Matchbox models, anything is possible... :D

Thanks Reg. Budget one is without Vauxhall cast, it came from the same place as the one on ebay. There was about 12 of 'em in total and as far as I know they've all been sold.

Could be it's just the promotionals that used this , but not seen enough of them to do a comparison.

neither have I
these must be from the job lot from Vectis I heard about a while ago, if they were all from the same batch it would make sense
