Looked at that but dismissed it as the Mk10 Jaguar, should have gone with my first instinct.

Mk 10 with GPW - that would have been the find of the year! The Rolls Royce is a good find too.

The five "items of interest" which i saw were the white sf mustang,the redline misral,redline sizzler,the guy truck in green/blue and the cooper road train because of the orange labels.
The gems were the gpw rolls,cresta and metallic blue jaguar all i missed,there were other items of interest depends what you collect all in all i was pleased with this lot. :D

Turned out to be a great Job Lot. The #44 Phantom V certainly is a hard one to find and it looks not too bad condition wise, well done.

Normally i can take some credit from spotting the gems but in this case it was all luck,and the "items of interest" which i bid turned out to be better than i thought with the exception of the mistral which unfortunately was missing its rear wheels,the football gum cards have a value and so do these rest of the larger diecast,i also realise i missed the car transporter trailer off the regular wheel photo but it is here,no red cab though lol.
