DY21 1964 Austin Mini Cooper "S"

Post by Wolfie Ginsburg »

And then a tiny Mini Cooper S (in scale to all the rest of the Matchbox Dinky series up to then)

I remember well that my best friend's father got one of these when they came out and he took us for a spin around the Cape peninsular - there were no enforced speed limits at that time. What a car1!! What a drive!!!

The Dinky Mini isn't much bigger than the No 29 Miniature

The next one is a bit like the Earls Court 91 Motor Show DY8 Commer. It,and the DY 28 Triumph Stag coming soon, were issued for the Classic Car Motor Show and I''m not sure if they were Code 1 or 2
