Please remember that Martin's Maxim requires a second example to be found before it can be accepted as a valid variation and for it to be entered in the code table.
Hello Idris.
As already said.
I think a code 4 (according to Nick's code list)
But in color, lemon yellow. (light yellow).
Greetings Mike & Nico from Austria and
much success the collection of models in 2014. :D

Thanks! Since the colour looks very much identical to the Miura, I have to conclude that this model is really lemon, not just a lighter shade of yellow.

So far I am not aware of the Superfast issue coming in this lemon colour, only dark and light yellow. (To me dark yellow - which may also be called orange-yellow - , light yellow and lemon are three distinct colours, with some models existing with all three, such as the 16d Case Bulldozer, Superfast 4d Stake Truck and the Superfast 72b Jeep.)

More research is needed here...

So it's not a transitional. Instead it's someone using the wrong yellow paint (c.f. 13d). very interesting!

Hello Christian,
Unfortunately I do not have Superfast models.
therefore no comparison is possible. :(

Here is another variation not on Nicks Variation site, my 21d model is a code 6, but is not a type 4 body but is a type 2 body
.
As variations go Stannards only lists 4 variations but that was 1n 1985, now Nick has 6 variations so new variations are always being found.
